Well, in a UK context, NI is actually a province, and isn't Wales a
principality? Either way, none of them issue their own passports or
maintain separate EU membership, so you can't really claim that they
are as separate from each other as countries that do have these
trappings of statehood.

I've just fixed the Irish border, which luckily presents no such
dilemma, as it is an international border, even by non-UK criteria. It
lacked  admin_level=2.
