The Channel Isles are the part of the British Isles nearest France (Geologically not part of the archipelago but generally included in the British Isles).

There are four separate islands:

- Jersey? UK Dependency (Parliamentary Bailiwick)
- Guernsey? UK Dependency (Parliamentary Bailiwick)
- Alderney? Guernsey Dependency (Electorally part of Guernsey)
- Sark? Guernsey Dependency (Feudal Domain)

Note they are not legally UK dependencies, but British crown dependencies. They are not under British law part of the United Kingdom, though the United Kingdom controls their external affairs.
