Well, clearly an inland reservoir must be counted as part of the land mass of said land area.

I know the British Empire is not what it once was, but the Queen still rules Canada and Australia with an iron fist, doesn't she? :D

And they still have many small overseas territories.

As to the question, I'd guess it's an island that begins with an "H". H-ISland. Am I right?

If only I could think of one... :(

Donks is quick on the uptake ;)
