Ireland (or Éire) was a nation-state on the planet Earth, comprised of the island of Ireland.

HistoryEdit

Great Britain first invaded the island in the 12th century, and enslaved it for centuries, often marked by rebellion. In 1922, the island was divided, creating the Irish Free State (which became the Republic of Ireland in 1949), and Northern Ireland, which remained part of the United Kingdom.

Decades of strife and terrorist activity followed, with the goal of bringing about a united Ireland. Reunification finally came about in the year 2024. (TNG episode: "The High Ground")

In the mirror universe, Irish history followed a similar course with respect to its numerous conflicts with Britain over the course of several centuries. (DS9 novel: The Soul Key)

In 2151, the students of Worley Elementary School in Kenmare, County Kerry, Ireland submitted questions to the crew of the Enterprise. (ENT episode: "Breaking the Ice")

Ghettos of the poor remained in the northern parts of Ireland for some centuries, with the last few surviving into the 23rd century. Youth gangs were common in one of these cities. (FASA RPG module: Orion Ruse)

The source said "northern Ireland", using the lower-case for north, indicating that is likely across all the north of Ireland, not just the area called "Northern Ireland".

CultureEdit

Irish culture flourished and spread, as evidenced by the annual Irish Harp Festival (TOS novel: Enterprise: The First Adventure). Ireland was also the home of Irish whiskey (EV comic: "Flesh of My Flesh").

LocationsEdit

County Kerry was a region in Ireland, home of the town of Kenmare. This was the site of Worley Elementary School. (ENT episode: "Breaking the Ice")

The capital of Ireland is Dublin.^{[citation needed]}
