Ireland is the second-largest island of the British Isles, the third-largest in Europe, and the twentieth-largest on Earth.
The population of Ireland was estimated to be 4,841,943 people.
Irish novelists have made major contributions to world literature. Famous writers include Jonathan Swift – Gulliver’s Travels, Bram Stoker – Dracula and James Joyce – Ulysses.
Ireland is also renowned for its wealth of folklore, from tales of tiny leprechauns with hidden pots of gold to that of the patron saint, Patrick, with his legendary ridding the island of snakes and his reputed use of the three-leaved shamrock as a symbol for the Christian Trinity.
Ireland’s capital is Dublin, a populous and affluent city whose metropolitan area is home to more than one-fourth of the country’s total population. The city’s old dockside neighbourhoods have given way to new residential and commercial development.
Cork, Ireland’s second largest city, is a handsome cathedral city and port in the southwest. Other principal centres include Waterford, Wexford, and Drogheda on the east coast, Sligo in the northwest, and Limerick and Galway in the west.
