Divided kingdom: This map tells a pretty big story

More than 30 million people from England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland -- and even tiny Gibraltar -- went to the polls, with 51.89% of them deciding that Britain would become the first country to withdraw from the 28-member bloc.

Yet 48% of voters disagreed with that decision, leaving a remarkably clear picture geographically. London, Scotland and Northern Ireland wanted to remain, while voters in Wales and every English region outside of the capital backed the campaign to leave.

The decision has already led to the resignation of Prime Minister David Cameron.

Ominous words given that a second referendum on Scotland's own position within the United Kingdom was part of the Scottish National Party's manifesto during the recent Scottish parliamentary election.

Brexit: What does it mean for you?

Former First Minister and SNP leader Alex Salmond, the architect of the 2014 independence referendum that ended in defeat for the nationalists, warned a second ballot was likely if the country is 'dragged' out of the EU.

Irish union

Meanwhile, Northern Ireland's similar backing for continued EU membership provoked a call by Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness for a poll on a united Ireland.

He told Irish broadcaster RTE the 'Brexit' vote means that 'the British government now has no democratic mandate to represent the views of the North in any future negotiations with the European Union and I do believe that there is a democratic imperative for a 'border poll' to be held.'
