不列颠群岛 British Isles

(重定向自Atlantic Isles)

不列颠群岛(British Isles)是欧洲西北海岸外,大西洋上的群岛。主要包括大不列颠岛、爱尔兰岛、马恩岛、设德兰群岛、奥克尼群岛、赫布里底群岛等等岛屿,习惯上还包括海峡群岛。

不列颠群岛今天有两个主权国家并存,分别是英国和爱尔兰共和国。

不列颠群岛这一名称在爱尔兰共和国不受欢迎,因为它过于强调英国和大不列颠岛在这一范围内的主导,民间和政府都不使用这个名称。不过在地理学上这个群岛历来并没有其它合适的名称可供使用。英国各界在与爱尔兰的交涉中,为避免触及敏感情绪,常使用“这些岛屿”等含混的名称。历史学家诺曼·戴维斯(Norman Davies)1999年发表的著作就只称作《群岛》(The Isles)。
