no need to get all ragey about people asking if wales is a country
many people get confused about wether its a Principality or a country just google Is wales a country or principality and you get both answers and lots of ragey posts ^^
Untill a year or so ago the ISO described the UK as this ,"ISO Newsletters had described the United Kingdom as consisting of two countries, England and Scotland, with Northern Ireland described as a province and Wales a principality"
basically it depends who you ask but yeah its pretty much a country
even if it is full of sheep
