I honestly don't envy any website owner... wow, nothing escapes note from CR Listers. My wife is British and "Great Britain" works for both of us.

"United Kingdom" is used more by the folks who are working against the ver y concept. Actually, we have our priorities all wrong here. Back in the days when Great Britain was the cycle making capital of the planet, it was not necessary to even note where something was made unless it was made other than Britain which was unthinkable. In which case those nasty overseas m ade tyres that replaced Dunlops were simply labelled "FOREIGN". So, my suggestion: have one category "Great Britain" and lump all the others into

"Foreign" and be done with it.
