ReligiousCatholic 78%, Church of Ireland (incl. Protestants) 4. 2%, Muslims 1..... 4%, For other places with the same name see Ireland (disambiguation). In the northwest of Europe, Ireland has been split in political terms since 1920. The largest part of the archipelago consists of Ireland (Irish: Eire, also known as Poblacht na hÉireann = Republic of Ireland).

Most of the remaining is Northern Ireland, which belongs to the United Kingdom. Ireland is traditionally made up of 32 provinces, six of which, together known as Northern Ireland, have been part of the United Kingdom since the Irish took over self-government in 1922. Ireland " is the name for the whole isle, but in English it is also the name of the sovereign state (i.e. the 26 non-UK counties) since 1921.

In the fourth millennium BC Roman Celts established themselves on the isle. The invasion of the Normans began in the early twelfth centuries and began Ireland's uncomfortable situation within England's reach. In 1800 the law - in which Catholics, 90% of the people of Ireland, were expelled from parliament - provided for Ireland's accession to the United Kingdom.

During the second half of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the issue of Ireland's domination was a big issue in the UK House of State. An unsuccessful Easter Monday 1916 insurrection (after 15 of the given up leader were executed by execution squads and 1 hanged) showed a touch of things to come after years of conflict, beginning with the Independence Wars of Ireland (1919-1921) and on with the Civil Wars of Ireland (1922-1923).

The self-governance of 26 of the south of Ireland, the so-called Irish Free State, finally created a somewhat steady position; the other six in the north-east of the countryside, which make up two third of the old Ulster provinces, remain part of the United Kingdom - a position that continues to this day.

1949 the Irish Free State became "Ireland" (alias the Republic of Ireland) and retired from the British Commonwealth of Nations. The postpartition story of Northern Ireland was dominated by force, a time known as "The Troubles", which is generally considered the beginning of the early 1960', when there was a large-scale clash between rival paramilitaries who wanted to keep Northern Ireland either as part of the United Kingdom or to take it to Ireland[1], as well as with the Irish infiltrators.

These riots saw many ups and downs in the severity of the struggles and on many occasions they even escalated into acts of terrorism in the Republic of Ireland, Britain and mainland Europe. The United Kingdom and Irish governments both were against all terrorism groups. What is known as the Good Friday Agreement was definitively adopted in 1998 and is now being put into effect, giving the people of Northern Ireland the possibility of double nationality, self-government, the guarantee of citizens' freedoms and a reunification democracy at the request of the people.

Although Ireland was a relatively impoverished nation for much of the twentieth-century it became a member of the European Community in 1973 (at the same period as the United Kingdom). Ireland experienced a huge booming economy (called "The celtic tiger ") between the mid-1990s and the end of the 2,000s and became one of the wealthiest nations in Europe.

Ireland was severely affected by the current financial crises and the ensuing downturn, and high rates of inflation continued to rise for the 2009-2013 season before a slow pace of growth made Ireland one of the most powerful European economy. From a historical point of view Ireland was split into four old counties, namely Connacht, Leinster, Munster and Ulster, but these have no admin. importance today.

The best-known international is Ulster, of course, as it is used as a generic name for Northern Ireland, although three of its nine provinces lie within Ireland. The most unfamiliar in Ireland is the 4th district, which is mainly made up of joiners and gipsies, most often known as Black Ireland, known by locals as Spkullatu.

Today you can often see the other provincial titles, e.g. in sport clubs, but for the most part the Irish region is described as follows: See seperate articles for towns in Northern Ireland. Baile Átha Cliath - the nation's biggest and most important town.

Dublin is a very favourite holiday resort and the 4th most frequented in Europe with outstanding bars, refined architectural styles and good shops. Described by Ptolemy as Eblana around 140, the early town was the initial Jewish community of Ireland and a later of the Vikings around 900. Corcaigh - the second biggest town in the Republic of Ireland - lies on the bank of the Lee River.

Gaillimh - a town on the Corrib on Ireland's western seaboard. Well-known as the town of the tribes, Galway's summers is packed with festival of local folk songs, foods, Irish languages and cultur. In Killarney - Probably (at least until recently) the most visited traveler' s paradise in Ireland. Cill Chainnigh - an appealing mediaeval town known as the Marble Town - home of the Cat Laugh's Comedy Festival, which takes place every year in early June.

Luimneach - a town on the Shannon in the southwest of the state. It is also a favourite place for shoppers. Port Láirge - Often referred to as Ireland's oldest town. The Waterford is good for those who want to know more about Ireland's oldest story. This is a mealy roll of sandwich that is typical of this part of Ireland.

It is a member of the European Union but not of the Schengen area. EU and EEA nationals (and Switzerland) only need a current ID document or pass and do not need a visas for entering or working in Ireland; in many cases they have full right of access to and stay in Ireland.

Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Samoa, San Marino, the Seychelles, Singapore, the Solomon Islands, South Africa, South Korea, Swaziland, Taiwan, Tonga, Trinidad & Tobago, Tuvalu, the United Arab Emirates, the United States, Uruguay, Vanuatu, the Vatican City and Venezuela and UK nationals (overseas) are required to have a passport for travel but do not need a visa for a stay of more than three MONTH.

You can be screened for proof (such as text messages, e-mails, etc.) that you are intending to work in Ireland without authorisation, and if proof is found, you will be immediately withdrawn from the state. People who wish to work in Ireland for a brief period of time (if they come from an eligable country) should first apply for a Working Holiday Visa through their Irish Embassy or Consulate.

Non-citizens of countries not requiring a valid traveler' s permit will NOT have a 90-day traveler stamps on arriving. It is also possible to ask about the touristic sites they wish to see. Nationals of other states should contact the Irish Ministry of Foreign Affairs[3] to verify the list of nationalities. Applying for a touristic permit is relatively simple and is described on the website of the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service[4].

In no case can a stay with a touristic visa be prolonged beyond 90 nights. There are no UK nationals traveling to Ireland under an Informal Arrangement between the United Kingdom and Ireland, known as The Common Travel Area. However, upon arrival at an Ireland UK aerodrome you will be asked for a current identity document with an appropriate photograph, such as a driver's license or visa, showing your origin.

The purpose of this is to demonstrate that you are an Irishman or a British national who is eligible to travel in the Common Travel Area (only a full licence is permitted, and then only if the owner was originally borne in the UK or Ireland). Chinese and Indian citizens who have a ³cBIVS³d endorsement and who have approved entry to the United Kingdom can stay in Ireland without a visas for up to 90 consecutive nights (or up to their present entry or residence permit to the United Kingdom, whichever is shorter).

Uzbekistan, who have a visas in force to travel to the United Kingdom (with the exception of "Visitor in Transit" and "Visitor seeking due to enter it for the purposes of marriage oder to enter a civilian partnership") and who have approved entry into the United Kingdom, may travel to Ireland without a visas for up to 90 consecutive nights (or until the date on which they obtain the entry or residence permit to the United Kingdom, whichever is shorter).

The same exception is applicable to Kuwaiti, Oman and Qatar citizens who have crossed the United Kingdom at the feet of a C-Visit Electronic Visa Waiver (EVW). If, upon arrival in the United Kingdom, you arrive in Ireland by road and are postmarked there, you will pass through customs at your point of arrival, but will probably not be subject to migration checks from Ireland, and your authorised residence will generally be under the terms of your arrival in the United Kingdom.

You will pass through Irish immigration controls if you plan to come to the UK from Ireland, even if you are in the process of transiting, but you will not pass through immigration when you arrive in the UK. Should you plan to remain in the UK for more than three month, in particular as a student visitor in the UK, you must file an application to prolong your UK residence (around GB£500), obtain a UK residence permit in advanced, visit the European continent and re-enter the UK or prevent passage through Ireland.

But if you need a visas for Ireland or the United Kingdom, you must have a visas from any countries for which you need a visas if you want to be there. Ireland is serviced by 4 major Irish cities, Dublin (IATA: DUB), Shannon (IATA: SNN) in County Clare, Cork (IATA: ORK) and Ireland West, Knock (IATA: NOC) in County Mayo.

Dublin, Europe's eighth biggest international hub, is by far the biggest and most interconnected hub in the world, with services to many destinations in the US, Canada, the UK, mainland Europe, Asia and the Middle East. Shannon, near the town of Limerick, also offers services to the USA, Canada, the Middle East, the UK and Europe.

City of Derry and both Belfast International and City of Derry are relatively close to the North-South boundary, especially the former one. These are the three aerodromes in Northern Ireland. The two large Irish airline companies Aer Lingus[5] and Ryanair[6] are low-cost-transporters. For a complete list of airline companies operating direct flights to Ireland, as well as the destination and schedules, visit the Dublin, Shannon, Cork and Knock website.

Aer Arann[7] also offers a local flight plan, offering mainly to and from the UK on Ireland's internal and intercontinental routes. Belfast Central to Dublin Connolly is the only cross-border railway to offer Ireland-Rib. and Northern Ireland Railways' business services. There is also a railway sail programme connecting Stena Line[8] or Ireland Ferries[9] ferry operators with railway operators in the UK and Ireland.

The main route they use is from British towns via the various British and British rail networks via the Dublin-Holyhead, Rosslare-Fishguard and Rosslare-Pembroke sailways. In cooperation with Bus Eireann and National Express (Great Britain) Eurolines[12] operates connections to Great Britain and beyond. Eirebus [13] offers extra personal transport for individual travellers and group transfer.

There are many UK and French service providers in Ireland: NOROLKLINE [14] - operates cargo and air transport from Liverpool to Dublin. Ireland Ferries[15] drive from Holyhead, North Wales, to Dublin and from Pembroke, Sout Wales, to Rosslare. The Stena Line [16] links Holyhead with Dún Laoghaire (Co. Dublin) (about 8 km from Dublin downtown ) and Fishguard, Rosslare, in the southern part of Wales.

Ireland and Brittany Ferries[17] offer service from France (e.g. Roscoff) to Rosslare and Cork. Irishmandferries is sometimes much less expensive than Brittany Fries, so check the price. The Steam Packet Company - Operates connections between Northwest England (mainly Liverpool) and Dublin, and the Isle of Man to Dublin. The ferry service from Rosslare to Cherbourg was previously operated by P&O Ireland Sea.

Indeed, the borders are seldom marked and it is often hard to say when you have come from the Republic to Northern Ireland and back. Most evident is that road signs on the Republic side are mostly bi-lingual, in English and lrish, and that speeds and distance are indicated in kilomter.

They may also see changes in the line in the street; thick golden brown line in the southern part and thin blank line in Northern Ireland. If you are coming from the UK to an Ireland International Airports, you must present a photographic identification (driving license or passport) to show that you are a national.

Citizens of the EU/EEA do not need to have a pass to move between the two countries, but all other foreigners need a pass. Despite the absence of frontier checks, however, you should be conscious that you must have a current Ireland type visas if it is necessary for your citizenship, or you run the danger of being expelled for being in Ireland illegally.

It' not unusual that the An Garda Siochána checks occasional passes at the borders - especially when travelling by coach or rail. Citizens of some jurisdictions can take up the benefits of reciprocal acceptance of certain short-stay Visas under the British-Irish visa programme (BIVS). In case of any doubts, please contact the local Hellenic Ambassador in your area to certify that your passport and your citizenship are subject to the IVS system.

Please be aware that most of Ireland's rental companies do not take liability cover (e.g. by using a debit card) when you are renting a vehicle. The reason for this is that many streets in Ireland are small and require the full attentiveness of the rider, so that an auto gearbox allows the rider to concentrate on the street and not on the bike.

Furthermore, the number of traffic circles in Ireland is higher than in many other states. When you come to Ireland for a vacation, there is always the possibility of renting a chauffeured car for the period from several businesses that offer chauffeured travel, such as Kennedy & Carr Custom Travel[26], TSI[27], CIE Tours[28] and Lynott Tours[29].

There is an extended grid of battery charger stations for electrical vehicles and DC fast charger, with most towns and cities, most cities and towns, and the majority of Irish cities have fast charger stations and tourist resorts available every 25 km or so on the main lines. It is a uniform system for Northern Ireland and the Republic and is currently free.

When you come to a city outside business hour, the locals usually show you the typically lrish welcome and point you in the right directions.

Cabs should be relatively simple to find on the roads of Dublin, Belfast and Cork, but it can be more difficult to drive on the roads in smaller communities, so it is often best to make phone calls for one. In the Republic of Ireland, all cabs work on a national tariff base, so the rate should be relatively simple to compute.

Ireland's traffic and traffic regulations are similar to those of the United Kingdom - e.g. turn right at the traffic circle. One of the most striking differences is that in the Republic of Ireland distance and speeds are given in kilometers per hours (km/h).

That can be bewildering for anyone who travels across the borders from Northern Ireland, which, like Britain, consumes kilometres and mph. Street name plates in the Republic are nominal two languages, with the place name in italics in Irish and the corresponding capital letters in both italics. Street signposts are only in Irish in the "Gaeltacht" areas (Irish-speaking areas in the southwest (Kerry), western (Galway, Mayo) and northwestern (Donegal) and other smaller areas of theaeltacht region in Meath and Waterford).

For Northern Ireland, street signposts are in English only and all distance is in mileage. There is an important highway system around Dublin. From Dublin to NI Frontier the M1 leads in the direction of Belfast. Take the M2 (from Dublin to Ashbourne) direction Derry. M4 ("Dublin to Mullingar") direction Sligo.

M6 ("from Dublin to Galway") divides from M4 in the Midlands. Please be aware that most highways in the Republic have some toll road stretches. Riding on provincial and provincial streets in Ireland demands integrity, politeness and respect.

Hiring a vehicle in Ireland is very similar to anywhere else, as you need a debit and debit cards in your own name and a full driving licence for at least two years without an endoment. The majority of Irish hire firms use 25 years to hire a vehicle, but in many cases you must be 28 years old to hire a full-size one.

Rent a vehicle in Ireland comes with the minimal coverage that covers the vehicle but leaves you a retention in the event of an incident. There is also the benefit of free park in Dublin Downtown and marked coves throughout the town ( "painted only Club Car").

The improvement of the motorway system has dramatically cut the number of internal services in Ireland and now only between Dublin and Kerry and Donegal. The majority of Ireland's railways (all run by the state-owned company Ireland Rail[31], also known by its name, Iarnród Éireann) run to and from Dublin.

Huge expenditures are underway for the modernisation of the Irish state rail system, which includes the launch of many new coaches. When you are traveling online with inter-city please note that there may be a lower rate at the box offices in the railway stations. A pre-order can lead to big economies and the reservation can be made one months in advance, e.g. a trip for adults between Kerry and Dublin can be 75 if it is reserved for the next morning, but only 20 - 30 if it is reserved long in advanced.

Routes are almost always booked for big sports venues in Dublin such as the GAA Semi-Finals and Final and Maj. Rugby and Soccer Internationals. Please note this if you plan to spend August and September holidays. On 1 and 3 Sunday in September the final will take place throughout Ireland and busses and trams are experiencing a huge upswing in tourist traffic and on the provincial routes.

Nearly all Northern Ireland Railways operations are carried out by NIR[32] (Northern Ireland Railways). Within the Dublin metropolitan area, the DART [33] (acronym for Dublin Area Rapid Transit) electric rail service runs from Malahide and the Howth Penninsula in the north via Dún Laoghaire and Dublin downtown to Bray and Greystones in Co.

In Dublin Connolly there is a junction with the major lines and the Luas Rot line. The tramway system in Dublin is known as Luas[34] (the English term for "speed"). There is one (the yellow line) from Dublin's Docklands to The Point (next to the Dublin Harbour Terminal's nearest stop, the next one is still about 3km walk) and the other ('Connolly Station') to a large outskirts southwest of the town ('Tallaght') and the other (the blue line) running southwards (to Bride's Glen) through the centre of Broombridge in the northern part of the town.

The link between the red and green Luas line is located in the centre of the town on O'Connell Street / Abbey. Work on a metro line from Dublin Airport to the centre of the town is scheduled to begin in 2019. The Éireann Bus[35] (or Irish Bus) runs an extended commuter train service and offers community based service in larger cities.

Kavanagh & Sons[37] operates an extended direct rail link from Dublin Airport and Shannon Airport to Limerick, Carlow, Waterford, Clonmel, Kilkenny and Dublin Downtown Center as well as providing community service in some major metropolitan areas. CityLink[ 38] offers regular connections from Galway to Dublin, Cork (via Limerick) and Clifden.

The mother tongue of most Irishmen, English is widely used, but Gaeilge is the first of them. There are many who have a confined comprehension of English and it is only used on a regular basis by about 73,000 individuals, most of whom are living in what are known as Gaeltachts countryside areas.

Some 39% of the population in the Republic say they have a certain understanding of the country's languages and how to use them. However, a general disinterest and a failure to put them into practise outside school weakens their knowledge. It is not anticipated that visitors should be able to communicate in English, but efforts to communicate with the local population are highly valued. Recently, for example, a bill was adopted that changes the name from Dingle, County Kerry to An Daingean, the Ireland one.

To study at most universities in Ireland, it is necessary that students have completed and pass the high education diploma. In fact, it is a mandatory in the republic, although its educational methods have been criticized.

Some Irishmen may be offended, however, if you call Gaelic because it is considered a misnomer and applies to the whole linguistic group, which comprises Gaelic, Manx and Scottish.

Just to call it "Irish" is a good option. There is no need to know an Irishman to get around Ireland, but it is valued when you relate to government agencies, institutes and personalities with their own title. One of Ireland's largest and most popular tourism destinations.

Although it' a nice summer destination, this can be a kind of tourism trapping. Kilkenny is one of Ireland's most popular holiday resorts, this medieval capital, only 1 hr 40 min by rail from Dublin City, is a must.

Irishmen like to play games. Ireland's biggest athletic organization and the world's biggest non-professional athletic organization is the Gaelic Athletic Association, better known as GAA. GAA rules the two major international football and hurling disciplines in Ireland. There is no place in Ireland, especially in the summers, that would be completely without a Gaelic football or hurling game. Ideal would be in Ireland in person, but at least on television.

They are the two biggest single sports event in Ireland, making it hard to buy a ticket. The Croke Park, the host of the two final matches, is one of the biggest stadia in Europe with a seating capacity of 82,300 spectators. The unavailable will be crowded around TVs and radio stations, and all over the globe the Irishmen will see or hear the final, which will be transmitted via satellites and the warpath.

Gaelic football and hurling are the two largest disciplines, while Ireland has much more to boast of. Ireland is a global market and leading breeder and trainer of racehorses. Another great game in Ireland is the game of Golf. There are many great pros in Ireland, but for the tourist there are many golfs all over the state.

Football and football are also loved in Ireland. Ireland's football club is one of the best in the game ('one team' for Northern Ireland and the Republic).

A number of Irish-American dishes/products such as cornd served with cornd sauce, potato cancel, rarity bit and lucky charms are of US origins and are not generally known in Ireland.

"Shepard' s Pie" and "Bangers and Mash" are typically British meals, the former are sometimes found on British cuisines. The latter are not. There are no more potatos on the list, and Ireland's contemporary kitchen relies on locally grown produce that is easy to prepare and present, drawing on the influence of many different nationalities.

Since then Ireland has also had a vibrant dining and grocery industries that have adopted many new types of cuisines. Popular seasoning is still meats (especially lamb), shellfish and milk products, and even west side meats such as poultry and pig meats are still widely used. Today these features have been mixed with other ethnical styles and flavours outside the strict tradition of Ireland's cuisines.

Many of the places that offer local cuisine are richer (and some would say they are more attractive to locals) than the classic cuisine. Thailandic, India, Italian, US and Mediterranean influences are abundant and very good in the major towns of Ireland. In most areas of the Republic drinking is extremely costly.

Ireland has a number of "microbreweries" and breweries that make their own specialities. Every nightclub in Ireland has to be closed at a certain date according to the location and night. If the bar (or club) wants to shut down, they often turn on all the lamps so they can stop and go.
