The United Kingdom is bounded by the Atlantic
Ocean, and its ancillary bodies of water, including the North Sea,
the English Channel, the Celtic Sea, St George's Channel, and the
Irish Sea. The United Kingdom is linked to France and Continental
Europe by the Channel Tunnel. The United Kingdom is a constitutional monarchy composed of four constituent countries: England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The current monarch is Queen Elizabeth II, who is also the Queen and Head of State of fifteen other Commonwealth Realms, including Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Jamaica. The Crown Dependencies of the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, formally possessions of the Crown, form a federacy with the United Kingdom collectively known as the British Islands. The UK also has fourteen overseas territories, all remnants of the British Empire which at its height encompassed a quarter of the world's surface and population. |
