United Kingdom - Overseas Territories

The UK’s overseas territories are: Anguilla, Bermuda, British Antarctic Territory, British Indian Ocean Territory, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Falkland Islands, Gibraltar, Montserrat, Pitcairn (including Henderson, Ducie and Oeno Islands), St Helena and St Helena Dependencies (Ascension and Tristan da Cunha), South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, Turks and Caicos Islands.

The UK’s overseas territories retain their connection with the UK by virtue of the wishes of their inhabitants and there is no intention either to delay independence for those territories that desire it or force it on those that do not. All the inhabited territories have assumed a very substantial measure of responsibility for the conduct of their own affairs.
