Q1. The UK is the country. The rest are not. Scotland will vote in September on becoming one or not.
Q2a. True apart from Britain.
Q2b. England, Scotland and Wales make up Great Britain.
Q3. People born on the Isle of Man are British Citizens and have UK passports. The only difference is that they are not entitled to the same EU benefits as people born within the UK as listed above.
The British Isles is a geographical region, not a political one. It is all the islands off the north west European continent. The two largest islands are Great Britain (the Great is to distinguish between Britany in France) and Ireland.
The country is on the front of our passports. It says: "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland".
Great Britain is the island that contains England, Scotland and Wales.
The country Eire is the bulk of the southern half of the island of Ireland. The northern part is in the United Kingdom.
The British Isles: a group of +6,000 islands off the north-western coast of continental Europe. The two largest islands are Great Britain and Ireland.
The United Kingdom: a sovereign nation, consisting of Great Britain (England, Scotland, Wales) and Northern Ireland.
Great Britain: The largest island of the British Isles. Politically, it consists of England, Scotland and Wales.
England: a country, but not a sovereign nation. It is one of the 4 constituent part of the United Kingdom. It is mainly situated on the island of Great Britain.
Scotland: a country, but not a sovereign nation. It is one of the 4 constituent part of the United Kingdom. It is mainly situated on the island of Great Britain.
Wales: a country, but not a sovereign nation. It is one of the 4 constituent part of the United Kingdom. It is mainly situated on the island of Great Britain.
Northern Ireland: a country, but not a sovereign nation. It is one of the 4 constituent part of the United Kingdom. It is mainly situated on the island of Ireland.
The Isle of Man: the 9th largest island of the British Isles. It is not part of England, Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland, therefore it's not a part of the United Kingdom. It is a self governing entity and a possession of the British Crown: a 'crown dependency'. Its people are British citizens.
Uk- all of the countries above plus Northern Ireland.
The OP wanted to know which are countries. England, Scotland and Wales are NOT countries (hence Scotland voting on becoming one in September). There is no English, Welsh or Scottish passport.

The UK is the country.
Yes, you point this out frequently. If they aren't countries, what are they then?
