Situated in the South Atlantic, the Falkland Islands lie between Latitude 51º and 53ºS and Longitude 57º and 62ºW - about the same latitude south as London lies north. They are 300 miles (483 km) from the South American mainland.The Falkland Islands comprise two main Islands (East and West Falkland) and some 700 smaller islands, a total land area of approximately 4,700 square miles (12,173 square km), comparable in area with Northern Ireland, but spread to a much greater extent. The distance from Stanley, on the extreme east, to New Island, on the extreme west, is some 148 miles (238 km).
The coastline is deeply indented and affords many good anchorages. There are no major inland waters. Topographically the Islands are generally hilly with the highest point being Mount Usborne at 2,312 ft (705m) in East Falkland and Mount Adam at 2,297 ft (700m) in West Falkland. Most of the uplands are comparatively bare of vegetation, being of eroded peat, scree and stone runs ('rivers' of angular quartzite boulders).
Because of the climate there are few trees, the natural vegetation being grassland, with some species of heath and dwarf shrubs. Bird and marine mammal life, such as geese, penguins, seabirds and seals, are diverse and relatively unspoiled. There are no native land animals. Legislation provides for the protection of most birds and certain mammals and for the establishment of some islands as wildlife sanctuaries and reserves.

The colony was turned over to Spain two years later and the islands have since been the subject of a territorial dispute, first between Britain and Spain, then between Britain and Argentina. The UK asserted its claim to the islands by establishing a naval garrison there in 1833. Argentina invaded the islands on 2 April 1982. The British responded with an expeditionary force that landed seven weeks later and after fierce fighting forced Argentine surrender on 14 June 1982.

FALKLAND ISLANDS GOVERNMENT SITE Introduction to the Falkland Islands
GEOGRAPHY AND CLIMATE Situated in the South Atlantic, the Falkland Islands lie between latitude 51 and 53 S and longitude 57 and 62 W about the same latitude south as London lies north. They are 300 miles from the South American mainland. The Islands comprise two main Islands (East and West Falkland) and several hundred smaller islands, with a total land area of approximately 4,700 square miles (12,173 square km), comparable in area with Northern Ireland but spread over a much greater extent. The distance from Stanley, on the extreme east, to New Island on the extreme west, is some 148 miles. The coastline is deeply indented and there are no inland waters. Topographically the Islands are generally hilly with the highest point being Mount Usborne at 2,312 ft (705m) in East Falkland. Inland, the ground is covered by low shrubs, coarse grasses and ferns, with lichen-covered outcrops breaking the landscape. The climate is characterized by a narrow temperature range which varies from 19 C in January to 2 C in July with a mean annual temperature of approximately 6 C. Strong winds are common and the rainfall pattern is comparatively low and evenly distributed throughout the year averaging 24 inches (625 mm). Falkland winters tend not to be as severe as found in some parts of the United Kingdom, but are longer. Snow has been recorded in most months but seldom lies for long. Summers are not quite as hot but the Islands enjoy more hours of sunshine than the south of England.
