By
the way, what is the difference between Britain,
Great Britain, and the United Kingdom?
Britain and Great
Britain are the same: It's the island that
consists of England, Scotland, and Wales.
United Kingdom:
Great Britain plus Northern Ireland.
And yes, you can
use the word Britain when you refer to
the United Kingdom.
