THE BRITISH ISLES

The British Isles lie off the north-west coast of continental Europe. They are made up of Great Britain (England, Scotland and

Wales) or the United Kingdom (UK) and Northern Ireland. The capital of Great Britain is London.

The UK is separated from Europe by the English Channel. The country is washed by the Atlantic Ocean in the north and the North Sea in the east.

Mountains are an important part of the geography of the country. The highest mountains are Ben Nevis in Scotland, Snowdon in Wales, Scafell in the Lake District and Slieve Donard in Northern Ireland.
