Jersey (the island)

Jersey is the largest of the Channel Islands situated in the English Channel, near the coast of Normandy, France. It is a self-governing Crown dependency, meaning it has its own government and legal system but relies on the UK for defense and international representation. Known for its financial services, tourism, and agriculture, Jersey features rugged coastlines, sandy beaches, and a mild climate. Its residents speak English, and the island combines rich history with modern industries. Jersey’s unique status and scenic landscape make it a notable jurisdiction and a popular destination.
