It's also including only parts of China, the UK, Italy, Spain and France. My geography is not good enough to recognise the other parts of European countries.

I'm surprised California is not included in the US.

[Edited first sentence to make it clearer that it's only parts of all the listed countries that are included, e.g northern Spain, eastern China, England, etc]

Not even the UK as it looks like Scotland and Northern Ireland are left out. Not even all of Britain as the western shore isn't included??

I think UK is generally understood to mean

United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, commonly known as the United Kingdom (UK) or Britain

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom

But yes, it's only England that's highlighted.
