GUERNSEY

 Although just off the northwest coast of France, the Channel Islands are owned by Great Britain. They are in the English Channel at the entrance to the French Golfe de St-Malo about 80 miles (130 kilometers) south of the English coast. There are four main islands: Jersey, Guernsey, Alderney, and Sark. They total 75 square miles (194 square kilometers). The islands are famous for breeds of cattle that originated on them and for the export of fruit, flowers, tomatoes, and early potatoes.
