Note: "An archipelago (/ˌɑːrkɪˈpɛləɡoʊ/ (listen) ARK-ih-PEL-ə-goh), sometimes called an island group or island chain, is a chain, cluster or collection of islands, or sometimes a sea containing a small number of scattered islands.

Indonesian Archipelago, Andaman and Nicobar Islands, the Galápagos Islands, Japanese Archipelago, the Philippine Archipelago, Maldives, the Balearic Isles, the Bahamas, the Aegean Islands, Hawaiian Islands, the Canary Islands, Malta, the Azores, Canadian Arctic Archipelago, British Isles, Archipelago Sea (Finland) and the Shetland Islands are all examples of well-known archipelagos. They are sometimes defined by political boundaries. The Gulf archipelago off the north-eastern Pacific coast forms part of a larger archipelago that geographically includes Washington state´s San Juan islands. While the Gulf archipelago and San Juan islands are geographically related, they are not technically included in the same archipelago due to manmade geopolitical borders." - (en.wikipedia.org 09.01.2021)
