Believe me, I know, but according to
ISO, the 2-letter code for the United Kingdom (of Great Britain and Northern Ireland) is GB (and not UK). Also, the channel islands and the Isle of Man are not part of the United Kingdom (nor of Great Britain, of course), and they are coloured yellow... that's why in the legend I'll put "United Kindom (and dependencies)". In spite of this, the CIA maps label these islands as "(U.K.)".
