When is a Country not a Country?

Having got to grips with the difference between Great Britain and the UK regarding constitution, land masses and Nationalities (which my Irish (ROI) employers still haven't ) it got me thinking about my ignorance in general over ..... well, what??
Can anyone explain the difference between:

A Country
A State
A Principality

... and where does the Isle of Mann fit in?? and the Channel Isles?

Just wondering - no political agenda!

I think you might find this link useful. It says it far better than I could hope to.
