But in the olympics it's all the same
Give the Suez Channel back
Well we didn't invent the Olympics.
Or did we..?
Literally one country, one language, same people, mildly different oiccents is not enough to be a different “country”
We did
Because back when the WC was being invented, the UK won literally every single time, so we spilt ourselves up to give the rest of the world a chance.
Hello
Well, not really
How do you explain Austria then?
Modern olympics have nothing to do with ancient Olympics.
You greeks didn't allowed foreigners or women to participate, and there were also math and philosophy competitions.
Also, naked athletes.
Why is there no Scottish passport? Or English embassy? Or Welsh Prime Minister?
because while they are countries they are not sovereign states
That's literally what most people associate with "country".
then they're wrong
i love your sovereign state

The Picts and Gaelic peoples are at the top, the bottom bit is Britons.
This shit goes back 1500 years.
Meme answers aside, when FIFA was created they asked if the Home Counties could have their own Football Associations and FIFA was happy with that
This. What I dont understand is why they dont have separate flags on Jow Forums
every place with their own football league can have their own national team.
