Ireland history
 
 
The  first   known  settlement in Ireland began around  8000  BC, 
when  hunter -gathers  arrived  from continental Europe, probably 
via a  land  bridge. Few archaeological traces  remain  of this 
group, but their descendants and  later  Neolitchi  arrivals
particularly from the Iberian Peninsula , were  responsible  for 
major  Neolithic  sites  such as Newgrang.On the arrival of Saint 
Patrick  and  other  Christian missionaries in the  early  to mid-5th 
century  AD, Christianity began to subsume the indigenous 
Celtic  religion , a process that was completed by the  year  600.
Irish Music
The indigenous music of the island is
termed Irish  traditional  music. It has
remained vibrant  through  the  20th ,
 and into the  21st  century, despite
globalizing  cultural  forces. In spite of 
emergration and a well-developed 
connection  to music  influences  from 
Britain and the United States, Irish 
music has  kept  many of its traditional
aspects and has itself influenced 
many forms of music, such as country and  roots  music in the 
USA, which in turn have had some  influence  on modern rock 
music
Irish  literature
For a comparatively small island, Ireland has made a 
disproportionately large contribution to world literature. Irish 
literature encompasses the Irish and English languages. 
Food and  drink
Food and cuisine  in Ireland takes  its influence from the crops 
grown and  animals  farmed in the island's temperate climate 
and from the  social  and  political  circumstances of Irish 
history
Sport  
Gaelic  football  is the most popular sport in Ireland in  terms  of 
match attendance and community involvement, with about 
2,600  clubs  on the island. In 2003 it represented 34% of total 
sports  attendances at  events  in Ireland and  abroad , followed 
by hurling at 23%, soccer at 16% and rugby at 8% and the All-
Ireland Football  final  is the most watched event in the 
sporting  calendar

Politically it is divided into a sovereign state, the Republic of Ireland, that covers about five-sixths of the island (south, east, west and north-west), and Northern Ireland, which is part of the United Kingdom, covering the northeastern sixth of the island.[1] The name 'Ireland' derives from the name Ériu (in modern Irish, Éire) with the addition of the Germanic word 'land'.

Politically, the state Ireland (described as the Republic of Ireland) covers five-sixths of the island, with Northern Ireland, part of the United Kingdom, covering the remainder in the north-east.

Relatively small scale settlement by both the Vikings and Normans in the Middle Ages gave way to complete English domination by the 1600s. Protestant English rule resulted in the marginalisation of the Catholic majority, although in the north-east, Protestants were in the majority
