引用 “British Islands is a term in British law which refers collectively to the following four states:
* the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland;
* the Bailiwick of Jersey;
* the Bailiwick of Guernsey (including Alderney, Herm, and Sark); and
* the Isle of Man.
The latter three territories are Crown dependencies and are not a part of the United Kingdom. The Parliament of the United Kingdom on occasions introduces legislation that is extended to the islands, normally by the use of Orders in Council. For this reason it has been found useful to have a collective term for the combined territories. Dating back to 1889, the current formal definition can be found in the Interpretation Act 1978, an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom:
"British Islands" means the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man.[1][2][3]
The term United Kingdom and Islands is used in the Immigration Act 1971.[4] ”
原来我在线 那几个小岛 比怀特岛 天空岛 之类的都小,为啥会算上。。
嘿嘿 找到答案了, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Islands
里面链接很多 还有 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_dependency 也有详细介绍~
海平面上升,到公元前 6000年 内个小岛从欧洲大陆隔了出来。囧
水库的问题真是一针见血,你要是把我签证的问题给解答了,我就告诉你为什么叫英伦三岛,哈哈.
给你些参考,奥地利使馆网站上说需要@Confirmed hotel reservation or confirmation of tour. Please note that we do not accept Bookings from booking.com or venere.com or hostelworld.com or hostelbookers.com without confirmation of payment for the whole duration of your reservation.@
我的理解是, 通过被点名的那四个网站预定的住宿不能用来签证的,除非你已经付了全额的费用. 而如果通过其他网站定的,那么即使你的住宿预定只付了10%的押金,也是可以用来申请签证的.
请指教哈
