Ireland: geography and landscape
Ireland is an island nation on the westernmost edge of
Europe. It is the continent's second largest island (after
Great Britain). The Republic of Ireland occupies 80
percent of this landmass, while a large chunk of land in
the north, called Northern Ireland, is part of the United
Kingdom. All together, the island of Ireland is made up of
32 counties.
Ireland is known for its wide expanses of lush, green
fields − so much so, that its nickname is the Emerald Isle.
But there are also large areas of rugged, rocky
landscape, too. About 15,000 years ago, Ireland was
completely covered by thick glaciers. The movement of
these giant sheets of ice stripped the soil, leaving huge
tracts of flat, limestone ground.
The midlands and west coast of Ireland are dotted with
damp peat bogs, the soggy remains of dried-up ancient
lakes left by the glaciers. Ireland's highlands rise mainly
in the southwest, often ending at sheer cliffs that plunge
thousands of feet into the Atlantic Ocean.
Ireland's wildlife and nature
The Irish have a great affection for nature and rural life. The country's first coins even featured pictures of animals. Low levels of development and pollution in Ireland have left most of the nation's open spaces relatively undisturbed.
Did you know that there are no wild snakes in Ireland?
The sea has stopped many animals common on
mainland Europe from reaching the island. There are also
only two wild mouse species (the wood mouse and house
mouse), one type of lizard (the common lizard) and just
three kinds of amphibians (the natterjack toad, smooth
newt and common frog).
Irish wildlife is protected by government conservation programs. To preserve natural habitat, the governmenthas established six national parks and hundreds of national heritage areas throughout the country. Great news!
Irish history
Archaeologists think the first people to settle in Ireland arrived around 6000 B.C. By 3500 B.C., settlers were using stone tools to clear farmlands. Around 700 B.C., a diverse and technologically advanced culture from central Europe, called the Celts, began to settle on the island. They would thrive there for nearly 2,000 years.
n the ninth century A.D., Viking invaders began raids into Ireland. They eventually established settlements that later became some of the country's main cities, including the capital, Dublin. These aggressive arrivals fought with the Celts often for 200 years until a battle in 1014, known as the Battle of Clontarf, united the country. Peace broke down quickly though and Ireland was divided into many kingdoms.
In 1170, Norman Vikings who had taken control of
England invaded Ireland and made it an English territory.
In the early 1600s, England's official religion became
Protestant, while most Irish remained Roman Catholic.
This would create tensions that would eventually lead to
revolution and Ireland's independence.?
the 1820s, British laws unfair to Catholics had sparked a mass movement for Irish sovereignty. In 1829, many of those laws were overturned, but Ireland still wanted freedom. In 1922, after violent uprisings, the Irish Free State was created within the British Empire.
In 1948, most of Ireland became an independent country,
while six mainly Protestant counties in the northeast
remained a British territory.
Irish people and culture
Ireland is a nation of storytellers. The tradition dates back to Celtic bards, who would record and recite the country's history. Many famed writers come from Ireland, including four winners of the Nobel Prize for literature. The Irish also excel in sports, music and dancing!
Irish government and economy
The government of Ireland consists of an elected parliament, which makes the laws, and a president, who is head of state. The head of the government is the Taoiseach (pronounced tee-shuck), which means "chief." The Taoiseach is the prime minister, and leader of the political party with the most parliament members.?
For most of its history, Ireland's economy has been based on farming and agriculture. But beginning in the late 1950s, government efforts to attract business turned the country from one of Europe's poorest nations to its second wealthiest. The amazing turnaround and economic boom in the mid 1990s and early 2000s earned Ireland the nickname the "Celtic Tiger."
During the global financial crisis of 2008, Ireland entered a recession and the country experienced serious financial problems. But in the past few years Ireland's economy has started to recover and is once again on the rise.
