I found this on the net...take it for what it's worth:\n\n"The smallest island in the world - according to the Guiness Book of Records - is Bishop Rock. It lies at the most south-westerly part of the United Kingdom. It is one of 1040 islands around Britain and only has a lighthouse on it. In 1861, the British government set out the parameters for classifying an island. It was decided that if it was inhabited, the size was immaterial. However, if it was uninhabited, it had to be "the summer's pasturage of at least one sheep" - which is about two acres.\n\nGoing by the above parameters, most of the 179 584 "islands" around Finland and the almost 200 000 around Canada would not match Indonesia as the country with the most islands. In fact, Indonesia consists only of islands - 13 667 of them, 6000 of which are inhabited."

Economy:  Silage potatos and Hay (EPA)\nAgriculture: Nursery stock, vegetables, dairy products, eggs\nRhode Island has a small farming sector of some 700 farms averaging 38 ha (94 acres) in size. Yearly farm income is only about $71 million; sales of livestock and livestock products account for about one-sixth of the income and crop sales for the remainder. The state’s leading farm commodities are greenhouse and nursery items, dairy products, eggs, potatoes, hay, apples, beef cattle, hogs, and chickens. Farms are scattered throughout most of the state. \nForestry and Fishing. \n\nRhode Island has an insignificant forestry industry, but fishing is of some importance. The annual fish catch is worth about $75 million; the main species landed include flounder, lobster, clam, squid, scallop, butterfish, bluefish, tuna, scup, cod, herring, and whiting. Freshwater fishing is not commercially important.\n\nMining. \nRhode Island’s yearly mineral output is worth only about $11 million. The leading products are limestone and granite and sand and gravel. Some gemstones also are produced\nworld almanac for kids

Look in an atlas.\nOn the Physical map you'll see that the British Isles is an archipelago extending from the Shetland Islands in the North East to The Scilly Isles in the South West. There are about 6000 islands!\n\nPolitically, these islands are divided into:\n- The Republic of Ireland (the majority of Ireland);\n- The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.\n\nThe U.K. is made up of Northern Ireland, Wales, Scotland and England. Each of these regions is semi-autonomous politically, and elect representatives (Members of Parliament) to the Parliament at Westminster in London.\n\nThe leader of the majority political party is the Prime Minister, who with a cabinet of Ministers, leads the U.K. However the Head of State is the Queen - though the sovereign has no power.

Since my son just did a project about it, I can tell you it's the smallest state in the U.S., it's not an island but it HAS islands, including Block Island which was possibly the inspiration for the state being named after the Greek Island of Rhodes.\nIt's about 20 miles across, east to west.
