Question: 1 / 400

Are St Helena and the Falkland Islands considered part of Great Britain?

True

False

St Helena and the Falkland Islands are not considered part of Great Britain. Great Britain refers specifically to the largest island in the British Isles, which includes England, Scotland, and Wales, but does not include these territories. St Helena is a British Overseas Territory situated in the South Atlantic Ocean, and the Falkland Islands, also a British Overseas Territory, are located to the east of South America. Both of these territories, while under the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom, are distinct from the island of Great Britain itself.

Many of the other choices imply partial or complete inclusion of these territories as part of Great Britain, which overlooks the specific geographical and political definitions used to distinguish between the mainland UK and its overseas territories.
