[edit] Great Britain and Ireland
Great Britain is not the name of the country which comprises of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. It is actually called the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (before 1922 it was "Great Britain and Ireland"), Ireland is not and never has been part of Great Britain.
Likewise Ireland is often used as shorthand for "the Republic of Ireland" but also refers to the island of Ireland which includes Northern Ireland.
