Apologies. This might not be the perfect community for the post.
So I'm late to the party here, but this is a very early version of a diagram I'm putting together that corrects a couple of issues with the diagram OP posted.
As I said: very early and also very incomplete, but what's there is accurate.
I’m into it! I can’t wait to see where this goes.
they call the state ROI (republic of ireland) to distinguish between the island
The Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland should pull an epic gamer move and simplify this chart.
Now add the EU.
what about canada and australia?
For a moment, I thought, this comment was in response to the Europe map someone else posted. There the answer would have been easy, of course: Eurovision. 🙃
show the entire commonwealth, and every place the UK has ever colonized?
well sorry idk the difference between commomweath and the map, isn't that the point?
No one outside of the UK includes Ireland in the British Isles.
"British and Irish Isles" is the most common descriptor for the whole archipelago I see, and it seems a fair one even if it's a bit long. It'd be nice if we could all agree on something catchier but that seems unlikely, all things considered
The state Irland shouldn't be republic of Irland ?
No, the state is called Ireland as defined in its constitution.
Thanks for the information.
Why the hell is it so complicated
I though it was complicated here in Australia where our states/territories (idk the differencd) all can have some very different rules and stuff at least we have mostly clear borders
Why the hell is it so complicated
