Yes, Britain is part of Europe geographically, but it is no longer a member of the European Union (EU) after leaving in 2020. The country is separated from the rest of Europe by the English Channel, which is a body of water that lies between southern England and northern France. Despite leaving the EU, Britain continues to have close political, economic, and cultural ties with the continent.
