If the country were to split like so many Europeans have being whining about (it's so unfaaaair), England would be 4th, still the top European nation, Scotland and Wales would be 19th and 20th above the likes of Greece, Canada and Sweden and Northern Ireland would be a fucking disgrace like Albania and Uruguay.

Not really. It's messy. "Team Ireland" is the Republic of Ireland's team. If it was all Ireland, they wouldn't use the tricolor.
It's confusing for certain sports though. Hockey and rugby for example are run by cross border associations so Northern Irish players, despite being UK citizens, only make themselves available to Ireland.
In most sports they have a choice, because under the Good Friday Agreement all Norther Irish people are entitled to Irish citizenship. Boxers tend to be Catholic/nationalist so they declare for Ireland. There are other controversial situations though. Take rowing: run by IARU on a cross-border basis, with southern money going towards nothern regattas and heads, but then Northern Irish rowers tend to declare for Britain because there's more money, so the IARU are basically wasting their money on under-age development of people that have no intention of ever rowing for them.
