Jersey is the largest of the Channel Islands , whose capital is St. Helier. Its area is 118.2 km 2 and is inhabited by 91,084 people (or more pleasantly Jersey toads ).
The Bailiwick of Jersey comprises the island of Jersey, and the reefs crhou and Minquiers and some other uninhabited islands.
Like the other Channel Islands, Jersey:
- is a crown dependency UK represented by a lieutenant governor. The sovereign British prisons as Dukes of Normandy.
- not part of the UK but depends for its external affairs (defense and diplomatic - but the Jersey government maintains a permanent representation in Caen ).
- not part of the European Union but it is associated.
It is headed by a bailiff , assisted by a parliament, the States of Jersey (53 members). States currently include the Bailiff, the Lieutenant Governor, twelve senators , the constables of the twelve parishes, twenty-nine members , the Advocate General and the Attorney General. The Bailiff is appointed by the Crown, is president of the Assembly of States. He is also president of the Royal Court.
The autonomous government deals with internal affairs and international relations in regard to tax issues, the environment (eg the vicinity of the reprocessing plant at La Hague ), labor, culture, trade and other issues that do not affect the rights of the Crown.
Jersey participates in the British-Irish Council (which includes the governments of the United Kingdom, the Republic of Ireland , from Wales , of Scotland , of Northern Ireland , Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man ).
Summary |
Until the arrival of the Normans , the island bore the name "Angie" (Germanic word for Augean meaning "island"). The meaning of the name Jersey is not certain but it is assumed that the second element-ey is the same as the other Channel Islands Guernsey , Alderney and Chausey respectively in the eleventh century Gersoi, Greneroi, and Alrenoi Calsoi. The element-ey likely represents the common Germanic * auj , in Latinized Augean in texts. Oye-Plage (Ogia eighth century; Pas-de-Calais ) and L'le d'Yeu (formerly Augean) are trained with the same appellation. The names of this type are widespread on the coasts of the North Sea and English Channel before the Viking period . Note also that * gives auj IEG in Old English and Old Frisian in ei. It seems that we can attribute these island names to these two peoples at the time of expansion. The first element ger-> jer-is unexplained.
History
Prehistory
There are 180 000 years ago, Jersey was as a plateau in the plain north instead of the current Channel. Hunters of mammoth and rhinoceros frequented some caves cliffs of Jersey.
Become an island there are about 8000 years with rising sea levels caused by melting icecaps, it was colonized by farmers Neolithic who built the dolmens and tombs and worship that we can still admire today.
Antiquity
Caches of coins show the colonization of the island by tribes Celtic to 300 BC. AD.
The Gallo-Roman period, there is little evidence, but we found evidence that archaeological evidence of the existence of trade between the Celtic tribes of the island and the mainland. There are also the remains of a fane , a small Roman temple at Pinnacle sacred prehistoric moorland in the north-west. According to tradition (disputed) of the Antonine Itinerary, the island was called "Caesarea" (or more likely "Andium") - hence the nickname traditional "Caesarea" found in the literature names and associations today.
Middle Ages
In the sixth century , according to hagiologie , St Helier Jersey have evangelized, residing about fifteen years on a rock in the Bay City before his martyrdom at the hands of pirates. The village built around the church founded in his memory on the dunes of the nearby coast has become the town of St. Helier, capital of the island. A medieval chapel, the Hermitage in St. Helier, built on the rock on which the saint is considered to have lived, is visited each year on July 16 , feast day, with municipal and ecumenical pilgrimage.
During the mass emigration of Britons to the coast of ancient Armorica in the sixth century, they inhabit the islands of the Channel (then called "islands Lenur") who were on their way. Saint Samson of Dol also visited Jersey and Celtic monastic communities have occupied places in Jersey during this period. In the ninth century , it belonged to the kingdom of Britain , but in the year 933, she was given by the King of France , with the Avranchin and the Cotentin Peninsula on which it depended, the Duke of Normandy William Longsword , dependent for him to conquer.
Incursions of the Vikings and the establishment of settlements Norman marked the names of the island. The Norman influence became predominant and the island was incorporated into the Duchy of Normandy after 933.
According to the Jersey Wace , Duke of Normandy Robert the Magnificent , visited Jersey to 1030.
The conquest of England in 1066 linked the island for the first time the British Crown. We joke about that in Jersey the Jersey beat the English in 1066 and therefore that "England belongs to Jersey and not the reverse."
In 1155 , the abbey of St. Helier was founded on the island next to the Hermitage in St. Helier.
In 1204 , King of France Philip Augustus conquered Normandy. The Channel Islands remain under the control of John Lackland , king of England and Duke of Normandy. Now there will be a Normandy and a continental Normandy island separated. The king of England will be regarded as Duke of Normandy in the islands. The Constitutions of King John Lackland ensure the freedoms and autonomy of the islands - is the origin of the Jersey government.
The castle of Mont Orgueil was built to defend the island against the French. Today, the castle, which dominates the east coast of the island, is a major landmark for tourists and is a symbol of the independence of Jersey.
Modern Era
At the Reformation , a deluge of liturgical books printed in Geneva or the Netherlands influenced the Calvinism which had triumphed in Jersey. It was then that the windows were smashed, statues and crosses slaughtered and murals erased or bleached. It is an almost total loss of the artistic heritage of Jersey.
Not until the second half of the seventeenth century that the Anglican Church is established in Jersey.
Under the reign of Elizabeth I of England , Lord of St. Ouen, Helier de Carteret, received the lordship of Sark on condition that colonizes the uninhabited island to protect against Sark bands of pirates who were using the island as a base of operations. With 40 families from Saint-Ouen Carteret has established that the small feudal state.
Appointed Governor of Jersey, Walter Raleigh ( 1554 - 1 618 ) handles the renewal of the fortifications of the island facing the cannon. He undertook the replacement of Mont Orgueil castle by a fortress on the island called L'Islet occupied by the former Abbey of St. Helier (abandoned at the Reformation). The new Elizabeth Castle guards the entrance to the port city.
Raleigh is that saved the old castle that was proposed to demolish to make use of stones for the construction of new fortifications. Raleigh had ordered that leaves "this noble castle.
During the disturbances of Civil War in England , Jersey welcomes Charles, Prince of Wales , heir to the throne. Following the execution of his father, Charles I , the prince was proclaimed king on the market square of St Helier on 17 February 1649. Jersey is the first country to recognize the new king. After the restoration of the dynasty in 1660 , King Charles II showed his gratitude for the shelter offered by Jersey offering the mass of money that we see today in the meetings of the Royal Court of Jersey and States of Jersey. George Carteret, Bailiff of Jersey, received land in North America - is the foundation of the State of New Jersey.
After the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685 , arriving number of Huguenots.
In 1689 , the law of neutrality is abolished by the Privy Council of King and Queen.
In 1736 , the library service is based.
The Battle of Jersey on 6 January 1781 , was the last French attempt to conquer the island.
Revolution
In 1789 , thousands of refugees coming to Jersey for the disruption of the French Revolution. Mont Orgueil Castle at the Jersey Philippe d'Auvergne, Duc de Bouillon , is organizing a spy ring against the revolutionary authorities in Normandy and Brittany. Many priests refractory find refuge on the island.
In 1799 soldiers arrive 6000 Russian.
The construction of military roads (begun in 1806 ) linking the coastal fortifications with the port of St Helier has improved communication between the parishes formerly quite isolated. Farmers can now transport their futures markets in London and Paris.
XX century
The island was occupied by German troops of the Wehrmacht from 1940 to 1945. Almost 8,000 islanders were evacuated, 1,200 islanders deported to camps in Germany and more than 300 islanders jailed and sent to concentration camps in Nazi Europe (mainly Neuengamme ). Subsequently, a total of 20 die.
The Liberation Day - May 9 - is a holiday celebrated every year with pomp. The islands were the only place belonging to the Crown occupied by German troops during the Second World War.

Politics
The meetings held by the bailiff and jurors justices according to the Constitutions of King John gave birth to the Royal Court of Jersey. Later, the presidents and constables have been invited to take part in deliberations. This is the origin of the States of Jersey. The title of States representing the three states (the judiciary, the Church and the people) appeared for the first time in a deed dated 27 October 1497 , while the state archives dating from 1524.
From the mid- seventeenth century , States included the Bailiff, the Governor, twelve jurors, and constables presidents of the twelve parishes, representatives of the Crown , the Vicomte and one of the two whistleblowers. The Royal Court has continued to issue orders in conjunction with the United States until 1771 , when an order of the Privy Council did state the sole legislative body of the island.
Changes were made to the constitution in 1856 and 1907 when arrangements were made for the election of deputies - mainly because of population growth in St. Helier whose voters were underrepresented relative to voters campaign. The struggle for democratization comes after the German occupation between 1940 and 1945 , reforms of 1948 , when jurors vigilantes and rectors have ceased to be part of States.
Currently, jurors vigilantes, but excluded from the legislature confirmed in their judicial role, are elected by an electoral college consisting of Members States and representatives of legal professions. It is the elected position as respected and honored to which a citizen can aspire.
However, the established church (Anglican) is always represented at States by the Dean of Jersey, who has the right to speak but can not take part in the vote.
A new representation of member called Senator was introduced in 1948 (originally elected for 9 years and then reduced to 6 in 1966 ) and the number of deputies was increased.
Although the Bailiff has no political power, he has the right to speak. His vote is decisive. He uses to maintain the status quo allowing the Assembly to refer a debate at a later date.
Lieutenant Governor attends debates but are not taking part. The Attorney General and Solicitor General are officers of the Crown and are also appointed by the Queen. They can participate in discussions but have no voting rights. During discussions, it appealed to them to clarify certain points of law.
Since 5 December 2005 , the head of government is Prime Minister (elected Senator Frank Walker December 5, 2005, followed by Senator Terry Le Sueur elected on 8 December 2008 ), who chairs the Cabinet of Ministers which has replaced the old system committees .

Feudal System
Without political power or legal for several decades, the feudal system of Jersey remained until today. There are indeed more than a hundred fiefdoms, at whose head is a "lord" or "lady". The British Crown in the person of the Duke of Normandy , Queen Elizabeth II , has some of these strongholds, had belonged to abbeys or priories Lower Normandy, before the sixteenth century. Then there are five major strongholds that are the fief of Saint-Ouen, the stronghold of Rosel, the stronghold of Samaria, the heartland of the Trinity and that of Melech, who seniority are entitled to vote in parish assemblies . They belong to very ancient lineages that gave many local officers, bailiffs, jurors, justices. These few families gather in their hands, as a result of marriages endogamous , several small rural strongholds, from shares made during the story, according to the precepts of Norman customary law , still in force.
As in England and according to a centuries-old system, the fiefs may be sold by the Lords to other individuals. Each lord is bound by custom to make the faith and homage to the Duke or his representative. This tribute is sometimes directed at state visits of the Queen in the Channel Islands. The last visit of the "Duke" took place in the Howard Park July 13, 2001. A monument was dedicated to the memory to recall.
Unlike the lord of Sark , Jersey lords have maintained that the only feudal rights, but have lost all their rights properly manorial since the nineteenth century and the next. The Lords played a social role even in the first half of the twentieth century. However, since 1986, a dispute between the Lord of the Pit (St. Helier) against the Crown and the States, on the use of the waterfront which is in the eyes of law, the lord subsoil, along the moors, marshes and streams. The case, which was still ongoing in 2008, focuses on the character of "mainland" or not strikes covered by the sea
Become owners of several lordships (English Manor), a number of stately homes have been converted as of the manor in Augris zoo , into a luxury hotel, or simply sold, which allows customary law. Some lords have maintained the area rich in rare botanical essences, and open to visitors, as the mansion from Samara to San Clemente.
A similar situation exists in Guernsey.
Note: the title of Earl of the Isle of Jersey did not match any fee Jersey. Although the 10th Earl of Jersey, Lord Villiers, resides at the Manor Radi, Grouville (Jersey), its title is the English peerage. The Earl of Jersey seat in the House of Lords.
Justice
p> The exercise of justice, for civil law like criminal law, belongs to the Royal Court which consists of the Bailiff, Deputy Bailiff of the twelve jurors and justices. It belongs to the Bailiff to judge questions of law, to decide on possible costs and determine the amount.In Assisi, a jury of twelve people a verdict unanimously or by majority. There is a Court of Appeals. The judges of the Tribunal d'Instance hear civil cases of summary jurisdiction to the Court for the Petty Debts Recovery, while misdemeanors are tried in Magistrate Court. The judges of the Tribunal d'Instance also exercise the functions of judges in criminal cases.
International status
The Bailiwick of Jersey is considered by the Council of Europe (through the Office of Treaty and Legal Services) as a territory which the United Kingdom international relations. When the United Kingdom is party to a treaty of the Council of Europe, Jersey may request that the United Kingdom declare that the Treaty applies to the territories - that the treaty does not apply. However, according to the constitution, Jersey has the right to negotiate treaties independently in all (eg, finance, social issues, environment) except in respect of the privileges held by the Crown.
The absence of legal personality does not mean that the Bailiwick is treated in the United Kingdom (including the state was formed by the Union of the ancient kingdoms of England and Scotland and the principality of Wales). But historically, the Duchy of Normandy has never formally ceased to exist as a state (now independent of the Kingdom of France) even though it no longer existed then as his last-lying islands.
Note also that the EU does not have legal personality as from 1 December 2009, with the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon.
Although, previously grouped under the name "British Isles" (British Isles, not to be confused with British Islands), the Bailiwick has gained greater autonomy with the creation of the States of Jersey, Guernsey Independent States, the Middle age.
The question now arises the recognition of the bailiwick of the Crown as a state even without legal personality at international level (which seems to be the case for recognizing the new role and status changes elective for "States of Jersey" and the ongoing modernization of the old medieval constitution).
Municipal Government
Jersey is divided into twelve administrative districts called parishes , all having access to the sea:
- Grouville
- Trinidad
- St. Brelade
- St. Clement
- St. Helier
- Saint-Jean
- Saint-Laurent
- Sainte-Marie
- St. Martin
- Saint-Ouen
- Saint-Pierre
- Saint-Sauveur
At the head of each parish is a constable (in other words, Mayor / Mayor).
The administrative authority of the parish belongs to the Assembly of Principals and Electors, which includes taxpayers with a property whose value exceeds a threshold defined by units and individuals listed on the electoral list. This meeting is chaired by the Constable in respect of civil cases and by the Rector in matters ecclesiastical.
The constable of each parish must provide police honorary composed of centurions , of Vingteniers and Constable's Officers. These people are elected by voters of the parish for three years. The honorary police officers are volunteers and most of them do not wear uniforms. They are mandated to make arrests, searches and can conduct investigations within their parish. A state police (in uniform) was introduced in 1951 along the lines of its counterpart in the United Kingdom.
Culture
The island has inspired Claude Debussy. His piano piece Isle joyful is a musical. Claude Cahun moved to Jersey.

John Wesley , founder of Methodism , visited Jersey in 1787 to encourage the first Methodist congregations. During the nineteenth century , Methodism had a strong influence in Jersey, especially in the countryside. We still see many chapels and the influence of Wesleyans still exists in social policy in Jersey. It shows the survival of the religious movement that had adopted Calvinism to the Reformation.

He decides to go to Jersey where he lived from 1852 to 1855. He lives Marine Terrace, at Strike of Azet, in the district of St Clement, where until 1855, expelled by the authorities in Jersey, he moved to Guernsey.
It is on this island that he wrote "The Reaping , 98 poems about his anger and outrage at the regime of Napoleon III.
Languages
In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, a major British colonial Anglophone made English by far the most spoken language of the island, Jersey relegating the status of minority languages. The English language is now official, the French language is official for certain ceremonies and legal documentation (see French of Jersey ). The Jersey , still commonly used by a small minority of the population, is a dialect of Norman. States of Jersey have relaunched their learning at school. Jersey regularly hosts the Festival of Rouaisouns.

The Portuguese is spoken by a minority of the population from immigration.
In the country, street names are usually in French or in Jersey. In Saint Helier, many streets have two names, one English, one French and Jersey, but few are accurate translations.
The printing press came to Jersey for the first time in 1784 - the autonomous administration of the island had demanded that twelve copies of each written law or ordinance, one for each parish. A monthly, the magazine of the island of Jersey, the first publication issued in Jersey, was critical of government and is closed after a few months.
La Gazette de Jersey, First Jersey Weekly, which appears for the first time in 1786. History of Jersey was founded in 1814 and New Jersey Chronicle competition from 1855.

Emblems
Three hypotheses on the origin coexist Flag Jersey:
- Norman is an ancient symbol found in Jersey and in the arms of the Norman-Irish family Fitzgerald;
- This is the result of an error map in the Netherlands which has an Irish flag Jersey;
- It is the red cross of the English flag to distinguish differentiated vessels Jersey during periods of neutrality in the Anglo-French wars.
The flag dates from 1981 when the crest and crown were added to the flag by royal proclamation in response to a request from the States of Jersey.
The three are from the Norman leopards seal of the bailiff, but were confirmed as national coat of arms. The three leopards are freely used by citizens of Jersey.

But there is a popular movement for the replacement of a song by Ma Normandie Jersey Beautiful Jersey / Little Man Bieau Jerri.
The Jersey is nicknamed the island by their neighbors "toads" (pronounced now in Jersey or in English "cwapauds") because we are not in Jersey and other Channel Islands. The Guernsey Jersey take revenge on treating them as "donkeys" or "Donkey" by language.
Economy
- Tourism (including zero-rated purchases especially perfumes) (749,000 visitors in 2003, staying 378 900; financial contribution of tourism in 2003 to 213,000,000 );
- Financial activities including " tax haven "for companies (50.2% of the economy in 2003);
- Agriculture (vegetables, fruits, flowers, dairy cattle) (1.6% of the economy in 2003, 5600 acres cultivated, value of exports in 2003 to 17,000,000 ).
The island is known for its production of potato scoop , the Jersey Royal Potatoes , which has been awarded the European PDO in 1996 Post The Post has long been a responsibility of the Crown since the opening of the first post office in Jersey. The French post office was closed on 1 June 1843 by a Franco-British. The first street letter boxes in the British Isles were inaugurated on 23 November 1852. The Channel Islands have therefore used British stamps since the inception of the latter in May 1840. There it is added during the German occupation from 1940 to 1945 stamps apparently local, but in fact issued on behalf of the British Post Office, by the postmasters of the two islands to face the impossibility of s' supplies of stamps in the United Kingdom. But since 1969, the postal authority has been transferred by the United Kingdom to the bailiwick of Jersey and Guernsey. Consequently, Jersey issued its own stamps and figurines Jersey have since replaced the British stamps in the island. Many studies have focused on the philatelic postmarks and franked with British stamps Jersey before 1969 and particularly during the German occupation from 1940 to 1945. The book Jersey ( banknotes and coins issued by the States of Jersey) circulates freely alongside banknotes English, and Scottish and Guernsey coins Guernsey and the United Kingdom.

Each piece bears the image of Jersey The Queen and the currency Bailiwick of Jersey (Bailiwick of Jersey) Although the UK has replaced its ticket for a pound a piece, Jersey has kept its ticket and also enters a room. The room has a different image Jersey each year - so far it has performed a series of heraldic and historic ships. To round the edge, there is the motto Insula Caesarea ("Island of Jersey" in Latin ). We introduced a 2 coin, but they are rare.
