Political definition

Political definition of Great Britain (dark green)
– in Europe (green & dark grey)
– in the United Kingdom (green)
Politically, Great Britain refers to the whole of EnglandScotland and Wales in combination,[42] but not Northern Ireland; it includes islands, such as the Isle of WightAnglesey, the Isles of Scilly, the Hebrides and the island groups of Orkney and Shetland, that are part of England, Wales, or Scotland. It does not include the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands.[42][43]
The political union that joined the kingdoms of England and Scotland happened in 1707 when the Acts of Union ratified the 1706 Treaty of Union and merged the parliaments of the two nations, forming the Kingdom of Great Britain, which covered the entire island. Before this, a personal union had existed between these two countries since the 1603 Union of the Crowns under James VI of Scotland and I of England.
