Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    No, in that year Britain was the entire island: Of which England was a constituent nation. That is the true definition, though you could make a case that culturally and socially, many people in England at that time viewed Britain and England as inter-changeable concepts, much to the ire of those who were not English.
