England Has No States—It's a Country in a Unitary UK

England is a country within the United Kingdom, which is a unitary state—not a federation. Power resides with the UK Parliament in London. The UK comprises four countries:

• England
• Scotland
• Wales
• Northern Ireland

Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland have devolved legislatures; England does not (though combined authorities exist). There are no "states" in England or the UK.
