Ireland are known worldwide as Irish and having their own traditions, Scotland are known worldwide as Scottish and having their own traditions, even if both are known by stereotypes and the like. Wales is seen as just more England, which is very much isnt, of course, but it's because of this that we wouldn't get a film about Owain Glyndwr like Braveheart: there's just not enough audience for it sadly.
