The British Isles are the islands that make up the sovereign states of the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland and the Crown Dependency of the Isle of Man.

The United Kingdom includes Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and England.

Although this term is not accepted in Ireland and is not used there.
Just off the north-west coast of France. They

Include the countries of England, Scottland, Wales, and Ireland.
The British Isles is an island in Western Europe.
The British Isles include mainland Britain which is formed from England, Scotland

and Wales together with Northern Ireland and about six thousand small islands adjoining these countries. The Isle of Man comes within the British Isles and also the Channel Islands although these are some distance away.

Historically, the Irish Republic (Southern Ireland) was included as part of the British Isles but because of the delicate political situation the expression Britain and Ireland is now used.
