The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, commonly known as the United Kingdom, the UK or Britain,[11][12] is a sovereign state located off the northwestern coast of continental Europe. It is an island country,[13][14] spanning the island of Great Britain, the northeast part of the island of Ireland, and many small islands.

The largest island, Great Britain, is linked to France by the Channel Tunnel. |
