Which of these are classified as 'Crown Dependencies'?

The Crown Dependencies are a unique part of the British Isles, and it's easy to get them mixed up with other territories. Think of them as self-governing possessions of the Crown, not part of the UK itself, but with the UK government responsible for their defence and international relations. The Channel Islands, which include Jersey and Guernsey, and the Isle of Man, located in the Irish Sea, have their own governments and legal systems. They aren't represented in the UK Parliament. This special relationship dates back centuries, with the Isle of Man having its own parliament, Tynwald, for over 1,000 years! The Channel Islands' connection stems from the Duchy of Normandy. So, while places like Wales are part of the United Kingdom, and overseas territories like St Helena and the Falkland Islands have different governance structures, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man specifically hold this distinct status as Crown Dependencies.
