Ireland (Republic of Ireland)
Ireland is an island in north-western Europe which has been divided politically since 1920. Most of the island is made up of Ireland (the Republic of Ireland) and the remainder is Northern Ireland, which is part of the United Kingdom. Ireland is famous for its landscapes sculpted over the millennia by both natural and human forces : coastlines of the Atlantic Ocean, the rolling hills of the Midlands to the quiet lakes, canals and winding rivers.
Ireland has been distinguished for its music, literature, idyllic countryside, rugged coastline, rural traditions, language and Irish culture, from legends to ancient monuments and Irish castles. Dublin is the vibrant capital city of Ireland.
The lovely Aran Islands are a group of three islands: Inishmore (Inis Mor), which is the largest; Inishmaan (Inis Meain); and Inisheer (Inis Oirr), the smallest.
