Looks Like Sveta and I (?) Will Go to England or is it Britain or Maybe the United Kingdom…

All I know is that coming in May of 2011. Sveta and I (?) are going to go to England and attend a wedding of one of Sveta’s relatives. Now I am giving Sveta’s son (Misha) first dibs on going, but if he does not and it looks like he does not want to go. I will definitely enjoy a trip to England… (Hence the question mark after the I…)
I get confused as to what I should really call Britain. As I have some limited understanding, that England is a smaller part of a larger union. Britain is a name for some of those small parts put together and United Kingdom is bigger yet… (?)
I really think Misha should go because this is a chance to see some close relatives of his and he and his mother can have some bonding time alone on the trip…
Now with that said! I really wanna go also and will not turn down the opportunity to go, if allowed. The United Kingdom is one place I have never been. I have been a lot of of places but never there…
For me to go is no issue because I do not need a visa and can go at the last moment with no problems. But Misha and Sveta are different stories. They have to get visa’s and the last time (several years ago) that Misha went to Britain it was a virtual nightmare to get him a visa. I had to get involved and write letters in English and have things translated properly to help get him to Britain for a week…
So due to that experience I doubt Misha wants to go through that again. I know that Sveta does not want to go through the hassle but it is very close family for her and they really want her there. Me, I am just an appendage…
Someone from the Russian side of the family needs to go…
So I will keep my mouth shut and eyes open. I will enjoy every second of my trip (?). To Merry Old England…
Windows to Russia!
PS: This video explains about the Britain Empire. I am still confused but much more knowledgeable, but confused…
