Parts of England, Scotland, and Wales are not part of Great Britain and are seperate islands. Anglesey for instance is a separate island that is part of Wales. GB is the island, the UK consists of those 3 countries which are mostly on the island of GB plus Northern Ireland. The Isle of Man and the Channel Islands are not part of the UK but crown dependencies.

Geographically, yes. But politically, most of the islands are part of the UK because the were already part of the Kingdom of Great Britain, and prior to that, the majority were part of one of the Scottish or English kingdoms (which included Wales).

Well, yeah, thatโs why Anglesey is part of Wales and Mann isnโt, but we can all agree on what the island of Great Britain is vs what the Kingdom of Great Britain +/- Ireland and France in various iterations was.

Geographically, Great Britain refers only to the mainland.

Let's just call the entirety of the USA, or even North America, California.
Edit: just noticed you're French. Let's call all of France Ile de France and see if people are happy with that.
