The {{tag|island}} of '''Ireland''' is a sea-bound land-mass, and part of the British Isles, located in north-western {{tag|Europe}}. Historically governed in its entirety by the {{tag|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 {{tag|European Union}} (EU), whilst Northern Ireland will leave the EU at the same time as the United Kingdom. | The {{tag|island}} of '''Ireland''' is a sea-bound land-mass, and part of the {{tag|British|British Isles}}, located in north-western {{tag|Europe}}.
