What, the Vatican?

I had my heart broken at the Vatican. And then I drowned my cellphone in my handbag.

3- America, Australia, and New Zealand

Not too many - 4, 5 this year.

Been to Slovakia, Germany, Austria, Poland and Croatia.
Just went through Slovenia, Hungary.

I've lived in many parts of England, Scotland, N. Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.

I've been to France, The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Greece inc. Crete, Israel, Egypt, USA. Possibly Canada too, but I'm not entirely sure. And I waved at Greenland from a plane. And Wales too. Although technically that's part of England. Or England is part of Wales. Or something. (looks questioningly at Tequila)

You are very well travelled. Was this for work, or do you just get about a lot?

France
Portugal
Morocco
Republic of Ireland
England
Spain.
I´d like to travel more to other places but right now I cant afford a trip outside Spain.

7. 9 if you count the two I drove through on the way to my main destination, and 10 if each of the constituent countries of the UK can be seen as countries in their own right.

I think I went to Canada once as a fetus.

I've been to :
England, Wales, Republic of Ireland, Canada, US, Italy, Spain, Portugal (Madeira), Austria,
Greece, Malta, Netherlands, Russia, Morocco
Germany (day trip from Austria), Monaco (day trip from Italy)
France (en route to Italy), Northern Ireland (en route to Rep of Ireland)

England,Wales,Republic of Ireland,USA,Belgium
transit only - Netherlands,Iceland

I've been to Amsterdam (never left the airport), Greece, Turkey, Italy, Austria, Germany, France, England, Canada (stop over only-never got off the plane unfortunately), & Baja California.

Wales, England, Scotland snd Northern Ireland are separate countries, within the UK (United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland). Wales, Scotland and NI have their own governments/assemblies, but also have MPs in the UK government, based in London. For some reason, England doesn't have it's own separate government. Some people say 'England' when they are actually referring to the UK, which really annoys some of us Scots, Welsh and Northern Irish.
I'm Scottish and I've included the other 3 countries of the UK in my list.

lebanon and syria. malaysia and singapore and abu dhabi in transit.

Sovereign states only. Overseas territories and dependencies will be included with the country of the motherland):

Canada
Cyprus (including the unrecognised 'Northern Cyprus')
Czech Republic
Denmark
Ireland
Malta
Poland
Portugal (plus Madeira)
Spain (plus the Canary Islands)
Sweden
United Kingdom (England; Scotland; Wales; Northern Ireland plus Gibraltar and the Isle of Man and possibly the Dhekelia SBA in Cyprus as well)

I'm 22. I'll be visiting Estonia next month for my 23rd birthday.

Yes, but Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are not independent, sovereign states. They are regions of the UK with their own autonomy.

What really pisses off the English, apart from feeling that they're never really allowed to be English, is the fact that they're paying for advantages for the Welsh, Scottish and Northern Irish that they themselves don't get and the fact that non-English UK MPs can vote on English matters without the reverse being true due to those matters in large part being devolved to the assemblies.

It's as though the Welsh, Scottish and Northern Irish just want the English to keep paying the bills. A lot of English people have become very resentful of this attitude (combined with the often anti-English attitude of the Scottish) and so there is now very little appetite for Unionism in Britain where previously there was much greater desire for it.
