Wales is most certainly a country, and together with England, Scotland and Northern Ireland make up what is known world wide as the United Kingdom. |

You're question isn't stupid and although you'd think there would be a simple answer there isn't.
Under the 1536 Act of Union that joined Wales and England, Wales is defined as a country, a dominion and a principality so in that respect then yes it is a country.
However, a country is defined as being a politically organised body under it's own government and this doesn't apply to Wales. It has an 'Assembly' which grants it some political independence within the UK but the primary government is in England, so in this rspect it's not a country.
Technicalities and legalities aside then Wales can be considered a country in it's own right. It has it's own traditions, cultures, language, history and most importantly - it's own identity.
For all intents and purposes Wales can be considered to be a country although in the stricter sense it's not. |

Yes. And it has a capital - Cardiff. And these days most Wesh people can also speak their own language and it is taught in and spoken in schools as well as English. In England people can't speak good English these days but you can learn Chinese at school! |

I have read all the answers so far and I am surprised that nobody has given the correct answer.
Wales is a Principality, just like Lichtenstein.
You all know, of course, that Prince Charles was crowned Prince of Wales at Caernarfon Castle so this is the correct definition of Wales.

Wales (Welsh: Cymru; pronounced IPA: /ˈkəmrɨ/) is one of the four constituent nations of the United Kingdom. Wales is located in the south-west of Great Britain and is bordered by England (Lloegr) to the east, the Bristol Channel (Môr Hafren) to the south and the Irish Sea (Môr Iwerddon) to the west and north, and also by the estuary of the River Dee (Afon Dyfrdwy) in the north-east. |

Wales is a country, but not technically recognised as such by England. You will see that the Union flag is made up of part of the national flags for England, Scotland and Northern Ireland, but not Wales. Wales was invaded by England and is therefore only recognised as a 'dominion' rather than a country in its own right. |

candyper, Northern Ireland is not part of Great Britain but of the United Kingdom.
Wales, as thousands have stated, is a country within the realms of Great Britain and the United Kingdom.
Guess someone don´t agree. |
