of mainland <a href="https://www.worldatlas.com/webimage/countrys/eu.htm">Europe</a>. The United Kingdom is bordered to the south by the <a href="https://www.worldatlas.com/seas/english-channel.html">English Channel</a>, which separates it from continental Europe, and to the west by the <a href="https://www.worldatlas.com/seas/irish-sea.html">Irish Sea</a> and North <a href="https://www.worldatlas.com/oceans/atlantic-ocean.html">Atlantic Ocean</a>. To the east, the <a href="https://www.worldatlas.com/seas/north-sea.html">North Sea</a> divides the UK from <a href="https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/scandinavian-countries.html">Scandinavia </a>and the rest of continental Europe. The UK encompasses a total area of approximately 242,495 km<sup>2</sup> (93,628 mi<sup>2</sup>). </p> <p>The United Kingdom is composed of four constituent countries: <a href="https://www.worldatlas.com/maps/united-kingdom/england">England</a>, Scotland, Wales, and <a href="https://www.worldatlas.com/maps/united-kingdom/northern-ireland">Northern Ireland</a>. Each possesses distinct geographical features and characteristics. England, the largest and most populous country, accounts for over half of the total area of the UK and is characterized by gently rolling hills and lowland plains, particularly in the central and eastern regions, and more mountainous terrain in the north and the west. </p> <p><strong>Scotland</strong>, to the north, covers about a third of the total area. It is home to the Grampian Mountains, which includes <a href="https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/highest-mountains-in-scotland.html#:~:text=Highest%20Mountains-,Ben%20Nevis,-The%20mountain%20stands">Ben Nevis</a>, the highest peak in the UK, standing at 1,345 m (4,413 ft) high. The Scottish terrain also features extensive lowland areas, especially in the Central Lowlands, where much of the population resides. Numerous lochs, or lakes, pepper the Scottish landscape, the most famous being <a href="https://www.worldatlas.com/lakes/loch-ness.html">Loch Ness</a>. </p> <p><strong>Wales</strong>: To the west of England, Wales features rugged <a href="https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/tallest-mountains-in-wales.html">mountainous </a>landscapes, particularly in the north and central regions, with the South Wales valleys and the coastal plains providing more level terrains. The highest peak in Wales, Mount Snowdon, reaches 1,085 m (3,560 ft) and is located in Snowdonia National Park. </p> <p><strong>Northern Ireland</strong>, the smallest of the four countries, lies to the west of Great Britain, sharing a land border with the <a href="https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/is-ireland-a-country.html">Republic of Ireland</a>. It consists of six of the nine counties of the historic Irish province of Ulster. This region boasts low-lying plateaus and hills, with the Sperrin Mountains and Mourne Mountains being the most notable ranges. </p> <p><strong>Bodies of Water</strong>: The UK contains many significant bodies of water and <a href="https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/longest-rivers-in-the-united-kingdom-great-britain.html">river systems</a>. The River Severn, originating in Wales and flowing through western England, stands as the longest river at 354 km (220 mi). Another important river, the Thames, flows through southern England, including London, and is a vital waterway for commerce and navigation. </p> <p>Regarding islands, besides the two main islands, Great Britain and Ireland, where the majority of the UK's landmass is found, there are numerous smaller islands. Off the Scottish coast, the Hebrides, divided into the Inner and Outer Hebrides, Shetland, and Orkney all feature rugged landscapes and a harsh climate. The Isle of Wight, off England's southern coast, and the <a href="https://www.worldatlas.com/islands/isles-of-scilly.html">Isles of Scilly</a>, southwest of England, have milder climates due to their southern locations. </p> </section> <section> <h2 id="admin1Section" class="anchor_point">Administrative Map of The United Kingdom</h2> <figure class="map_wrapper content_media_fixed" itemprop="image" itemtype="https://schema.org/ImageObject"> <picture style="padding-top: 110%;"> <source media="(min-width: 768px)" sizes="960px" srcset="https://www.worldatlas.com/r/w960-q80/upload/07/e8/37/artboard-3.png 960w"> <source media="(min-width: 410px) and (max-width: 767px)" sizes="768px" srcset="https://www.worldatlas.com/r/w768-q80/upload/07/e8/37/artboard-3.png 768w"> <source media="(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 409px)" sizes="500px" srcset="https://www.worldatlas.com/r/w500-q80/upload/07/e8/37/artboard-3.png 500w"> <img src="/r/w1200/upload/07/e8/37/artboard-3.png" alt="Administrative Map of The United Kingdom showing its constituent countries." loading="lazy" data-width="2103" data-height="3000" title="Administrative Map of The United Kingdom" itemprop="url"> </picture> <a href="/upload/07/e8/37/artboard-3.png" class="print_link" aria-label="Print Image" target="_blank"></a> </figure> <p>The United Kingdom comprises of a union of the individual countries of England, Scotland and Wales (collectively, Great Britain) and the constitutionally distinct region of Northern Ireland.
