Annie – I love your accent, Alice. Where are you from?

Alice – I'm from Northern Ireland.
Annie – I never met anyone from Great Britain…
Alice – I'm not from Great Britain! Here, I'll show you.
Annie – Oops…my mistake!
Alice – Great Britain is made up of three countries: England, Scotland and Wales. Here, see!
Annie – Hmm… so if you're not from Great Britain, where are you from?
Alice – I'm from the United Kingdom, which is made up of England, Scotland, Wales and
Northern Ireland.
Annie – Yea! I love learning new things: Great Britain isn't the same as the United Kingdom!!
