  Isle Of Man - LoveToKnow 1911   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
The predominant feature in the stratigraphy of the Isle of Man is, in the words of G. Lamplough, 1 " the central ridge of slate and greywacke, which seems to have constituted an insulated tract at as early a date as the beginning of the Carboniferous period.
Briefly, then, the climate of the Island may be pronounced to be equable and sunny, and, though humid, decidedly invigorating; its rainfall, though it varies greatly, is excessive in the populous districts; and its winds are strong and frequent, and usually mild and damp.
Fauna.-Like Ireland, the Isle of Man is exempt from snakes and toads, a circumstance traditionally attributed to the agency of St Patrick, the patron saint of both islands.

 Isle of Man   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Main article: History of the Isle of Man The Isle of Man became a Viking outpost/kingdom from circa AD 700 to AD 900, and was part of the Norwegian Kingdom of the Hebrides until the 13th century when it came under the control of the Scottish crown.
Due to this autonomy and the conservative nature of a primarily rural society, the Isle of Man has had several run-ins with the European Court of Human Rights because it was late to change its laws concerning birching (corporal punishment for juvenile male offenders) and sodomy (consensual sexual relations between adult men).
Citizens of the Isle of Man (Manxmen) are defined as also being European Union Citizens, however Protocol Three in the treaty of accession of the United Kingdom stipulates that "Manx people shall not benefit from provisions relating to the free movement of persons and services".
