The island of Ireland is a sea-bound land-mass, and part of the British Isles, located in north-western Europe. Historically governed in its entirety by the United Kingdom (UK), the island was partitioned in the early part of the 20th century. The six counties in the north-east of the island known as Ulster remained part of the UK, becoming a constituent country known as Northern Ireland (NI), and a part of the larger 'United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland' (GB&IE). The remaining counties of the larger southern regions of the island became a self-governing independent republic country, officially known as the Republic of Ireland (RoI, Eire, abbr: ie). Following Brexit, the Republic of Ireland will remain a full member state of the European Union (EU), whilst Northern Ireland will leave the EU at the same time as the United Kingdom.
