England would like a word. It formed in 927 AD. That means it is 1,098 years old.
England and the UK are not one and the same thing (as should be clear from the wikipedia snippet you copied)
England is like a "state" in the UK like Idaho is a state in the United States, right?
There is a lot of nuance and complexity there but basically: yes.
