    Wales is more than just a constituent part of the UK, Wales is a country.

    The word 'country' has several meanings. Wales is not an independent nation state and is simply a constituent part of the UK.

    There are many parts of Europe that were once nation states or statelets in the past but which aren't now.

    Wales isn't even on the Wikipedia list of them:

    Welsh territory at one time encompassed the whole of Britain up to the central belt of Scotland.

    When Wales last had self rule they ruled an area greater than the current borders of Wales.

    This was agreed in 1405 and probably should be the map today.

    I just hope that you don't have a similar experience to Spike Lee. He justifiably had a huge chip on his shoulder regarding slavery and the plight of the black man in the United States....only to discover that he descended from a slave owner. Racial purity rarely stands up to scrutiny.
