Comments by "Dave Sisson" (@Dave_Sisson) on "The Barbary States - The Final Yarrs" video.
The United Kingdom (or Britain) consisted of FOUR countries. They were usually listed in order of population: England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. So describing a Scottish, Irish or Welsh town as being in "England" is like describing a town in Alabama as being in Texas, just because Texas is the biggest state in the area. That's a great way to irritate or offend everyone. Please don't do that again. Signed a colonial (not from the USA) who can't understand why the Yanks persist in doing this.

@andrewreynolds9371 I have to rather strongly disagree with you there, but we all have the right to interpret things differently. :-) But I do hope you are consistent and also consider Scotland and Wales at the time as English land?
