Southern Ireland (Eire, as the Irish call it, or the Republic of Ireland) is not part of the UK as Northern Ireland is, but both are located on the same island and if not for history would be one whole country. Partitioned under the government of Ireland act in 1920, Southern Ireland is the larger of the 2 parts of Ireland. Southern Ireland is also a member of the European Union and United Nations in it’s own right.
