The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is a country in Europe. It's made up of 4 parts: England, Scotland, Wales (Those 3 together are Great Britain) and Northern Ireland (plus some piddly little islands).
The UK uses a combination of the BBFC and PEGI rating systems. They used to use a combination of BBFC and ELSPA.
The UK may be the largest gaming market in Europe, but I need to check that.
