Number 10 - Their Country Has Too Many Flags And Too Many Names

Apparently Britain has too many names just because we are made up from 4 different countries, similarly America is made up from 50 different states and 4 commonwealths and is known by 6 different names (The United States Of America, United States, the U.S., the USA, the States, or America).


Also each British country has it's own parliament, ministerial authority, and flag. Similarly each state in America has it's own government , police force and indeed flag, so that's 4 flags for us and 50 flags for the U.S. Oh, and the reason Wales was left off the Union Flag is because it was a principality and not a kingdom, however there have been talks to create a new flag that includes Wales.

And just one other point Mr Grasse the national flag for Britain is the Union Flag, not the Union Jack as you call it, it is only called the Union Jack when it is flown from the bowsprit of a ship.
