The UK consists of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
Great Britain (England, Wales and Scotland) is mainly a large island but it includes lots of little islands such as the Isle of Wight, the isles of Scilly, the Hebrides, Orkney and Shetland.
Ireland also has smaller islands off shore.
The Channel Islands and the Isle of Man are Crown Dependencies and are not strictly part of the UK.
British Overseas Territories (again not strictly parts of the UK) include a number of small islands - Anguilla; Bermuda; Diego Garco in the Indian Ocean; the British Virgin Islands; the Cayman Islands; the Falkland Islands; Montserrat; Pitcairn Island; Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha; South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands; and the Turks and Caicos Islands.
