Are the Welsh, or even the Northern Irish, submissive to England in a sense?

Sure there's that whole national United kingdom aspect and there's the supremacy to a degree of England and the English. I just wonder, in some senses of the words, would you characterise the Welsh people or the Northern Irish people as "submissive" in the relationship and the English the "dominant" one who wears the pants? Socially, politically, economically, culturally or just for giggles this question I ask. Politely and as a fantasy, respectfully.

Sure, I'd say the Welsh or Wales could be considered submissive/reliant on the English or England as the dominant

No, I reject the characterisation or the implied subservience of the Welsh or Northern Irish to the English folk

No idea/or sure I could see that 👀

Whatever whatever whatever lol

Perhaps I'm the first person to actually ponder this sort of question outside of one's mind and actual discussion lol as, are the Welsh or Northern Irish, the Scottish maybe less so lol Braveheart tough cookies 🍪 vibes, lol, that the Welsh and Northern Irish or both are like "the more submissive" partner in a relationship to their "dominant England" if that makes sense? I certainly don't mean no threesome lol

There are English cities with the population of northern Ireland.

Thank you. Hmm. And so what do you think about the aspects of my question if we look at them all through the lens as if of a relationship especially a dominant submissive one. Who wears the pants lol? I just have a sort of bias that, even if untrue, that to a degree, to some truth, they're submissive to English or the England. Does that make sense? I don't know if I make sense lol 🧐😆

They are countries yes but look at it this way the population of wals is 3 million, the population of London is 9 million. Wales and Northern Ireland are basically just large cities.
