The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland ( the UK ) It is the official name of the country which is situated on the British Isles.

Once upon a time the British Isles were an integral part of the mainland. As a result of sinking of the land surface they became segregated.

Great Britain is separated from the continent by the English Channel.

The country is washed by the waters of the Atlantic Ocean.

Great Britain is separated from Belgium and Holland by the North Sea, and from Ireland — by the Irish Sea. There are several islands along the coasts.

The main islands are the Isle of Man and the Isle of Wight.

The surface of the country is much varied. Great Britain is the country of valleys and plains. The mountains in Britain are not very high.
