The Canadians, Australians, and Israelis have it as a CorporateName (110), as do the French (210 - unimarc); LC and the Germans say it's a Geographic Name. No, the original "England" record linked to VIAF in the German GND says it is a "Gebietskörperschaft", which is a corporate body in English. See http://d-nb.info/gnd/15138-5/about/html and the RDF representation at http://d-nb.info/gnd/15138-5/about/rdf Perhaps something went "wrong" in the mapping of the German authority record to MARC21, so "England" got into the 151 (or there might be good reasons to do it that way, ask metadata experts...). The original record is not maintained in MARC21, we don't do MARC21 (or any MARC at all) here, we are just starting to switch to it as future(!) exchange format... :-). Sorry for being pedantic, early morning and not enough coffee yet...
