The Channel Islands belong geologically as well as geographically to nearby Lower Normandy and Brittany - known collectively as Armorica. The pre-Palaeozoic, and much of the Palaeozoic geology of this Armorican province, differs fundamentally from that of the Cornubian massif of Britain. The two provinces have very different histories, the result of palaeogeographical separation.
