[[Image:Rock of Cashel.jpg|thumb| | [[Image:Rock of Cashel.jpg|thumb|112x169px]] Ireland has been known by many names throughout time. The first name given to the land was Island of Woods, a name given by a warrior of the people of "Nin, son of Bel.” Other names were Eire, Isle of Mists, and Irlanda. | ||
Ireland is located in the North Atlantic Ocean, and separated from Great Britain by the Irish Sea on the east. It is divided into Northern Ireland, a constituent part of Great Britain, and the Republic of Ireland, also known as Eire. The island comprises thirty-two counties within four provinces: Connaught, Leinster, Munster, and Ulster. | Ireland is located in the North Atlantic Ocean, and separated from Great Britain by the Irish Sea on the east.
