    If there is an option of choosing a section called eretz yisroel, why not have one called u.k. too?

    It’s because the UK is small and insignificant. The world consists of New York, Out of town, and Eretz Yisroel.

    Because it’s a mitzvah to live in E”Y. There’s no mitzvah to live in the U.K.

    Also the UK is a sfek sfeika. If Scotland votes for independence then it will be called the disUK.

    Complex explanation.

    1)This site is Brooklyncentric

    2)This site includes the coffee room, which necessitates some humor, and, British humor is inscrutable to Yankees, expats and all.

    Because UK speaks English as does USA & Australia & New Zealnd & most of Canada[;

    The question should read, why there is no French section for Quebecois & French people? or Spanish section for the Mexicans & Argentinians {obviously not for Spaniards as it is only 22 years since the Herem expired in Spain so not enough time to have rebuilt a significant Jewish population in Spain since 1992}.

    Because I don’t live there, which makes it insignificant.

    “Because it’s a mitzvah to live in E”Y. There’s no mitzvah to live in the U.K.”

    Who said? There’s a mitzva to live where there is an eruv – and loads of YWN posters.

    Because this is the coffee room not the tea room.

    Because if the mods make a UK section (techncally GB, UK is not a valid ISO 3166-1 code), an AU section won’t be too far away.
