The capital of England is London. Other countries in the UK have their own capital, but UK chose london. grin
Example: Lets say West African countries decide to come together as an entity and still choose Abuja as her capital. So Abuja will be the capital of Nigeria and still the capital of WestAfrica.

Well written but no need for those insults.....












quote author=Heartlessbanker post=95034959]Why do people keep referring to the UK as England? Are you guys dumb?
England is "part" of UK and not "UK".
The UK stand for: united kingdom of great Britain and northern Ireland.
The British isle is made up of a lot of island,of which Britain is a part of. Britain is an island(or isle),the largest island in the British isle. The UK comprises of: england(capital is London), wales,Scotland,and northern Ireland. This are all island,close to great Britain, which is also an island. The 4 island there are referred to collectively as the UK. London is the capital of england and not London!
This mistake is so stupid. A thread in frontpage is making the same stupid mistake. UK is not the same as england. England is a part of UK!
Dumbos everywhere. Thus thread might not get a lot if views,but if theres a way for people to zee this so they stop making that mistake, mynd44 pls do.

If you can call them "dumb" for this, what will you call those who still think that the person from Akwa Ibom is a Calabar man or that the Rivers man is Ibo, which is under our nose? You would have educated "us" without pouring invectives.
