- dan1234 10y agoIsn’t it also “Great Britain & Northern Ireland” as far as the Olympics goes?
- lucozade 10y agoI believe the Olympic team is called Great Britain and our Northern Irish cousins can elect to represent either that team or the Ireland team.
- mindcrime 10y agoWhy not "United Kingdom"? Do Scotland, N. Ireland, and/or Wales compete separately at the Olympics?
- junto 10y agoNo, it's one of the few sporting occasions where they actually compete together.
