it doesn't matter that england or wales aren't independent countries. the correct way to refer to them is country.

The UK is a dynastic monarchy that calls itself a democracy despite having no checks and balances and not having ever elected its head of government or head of state. It also calls a bunch of oral traditions a "constitution." It doesn't get to tell others what words mean.

your countries government and constitution is just copied from the UK.

Oh really? Where is the dynastic, hereditary monarchy? Where is the unicameral absolute executive? Where is the parliament? Where is the unelected head of government? Where are the royal courts? Where are the personal unions? Where is the absolute central government? (The UK doesn't have a constitution; it has a series of traditions and common laws)

Canadians be like: cry

You sound like you don't have a sense of humor, I was literally mocking North Korea (which is communist, not fascist). Appreciate a joke, man.

these words were not meant for you. If I have no sense of humor, then you have no sense of logic ; )

😅 SORRY!

I'd love to see the back of the silly flags. I pay to use this site, and I've had racist abuse because of the flag. I don't pay to get abuse, I pay to play chess. I don't play chess on behalf of the UK nation, or to boost national pride. I just play chess because chess is fun. Flags are one of the less helpful features.

The only real benefit is that it gives you a clue what language your opponent might speak, should you wish to communicate. There must be a better way to do that. Maybe we could list the languages in which we can communicate in our profiles, and have the language-list accessible during the game?

...may I, in a moment of vevity, and, without adding unnecessary strain to international relations simply make the observation that some national flags are quite iconic, while others ( tricolours in particular) are synthetic, unimaginative and dull to the point of tediousness. In contrast, there is the flag of Wales...IT HAS A DRAGON! How cool is that!! If you're gonna do flags, that's the way to do it...
