UK not OK

Anyone who knows me knows I love soccer.  And those that really know me, know I don't really like soccer but I pretend I do to appeal to international blog audiences.  But one thing has really started to put a bow in me britches, and that is the name UNITED KINGDOM.

How cocky is that term - Kingdom?  Kingdom implies supreme awesomeness and utter dominance.  But the UK has neither.  Thanks for The Beatles and ship-building expertise, but you are a 3rd rate state now and need to change your name accordingly.
