Ireland and Britain belong to the west of Europe. Surrounded by the sea, they are the only neighbors on land. At the same time, they are the only island in Europe with two different countries. The northeast part of Ireland Island belongs to Northern Ireland, and the rest is Ireland.

Ireland is located in the west of Europe, bordering the Atlantic Ocean, facing the Irish Sea in the east and facing England across the sea. Capital: Dublin, main languages: Irish, English. Land area: 70,000 square kilometers, population: 4.98 million.

Since they both belong to the same island, there must be an inseparable relationship. Ireland used to be a part of Britain. Later, due to complicated and changeable reasons, Ireland became an independent country, as did Northern Ireland in the northeast.

The difference between Ireland and Britain:

1, Irish ancestors are Celts and English ancestors are Anglo-Saxons. In terms of blood relationship, Irish and Celtic are closer.

2. In history, the British occupied Ireland, and Ireland suffered from British colonial rule for this reason, and finally could not bear to leave Britain.

3. In order to change the ethnic composition of the island, the British moved a large number of immigrants to the nearest northeast region of Britain, which changed the ethnic composition of this region and made Northern Ireland stay in Britain after Ireland's independence, which became one of the two major reasons for tension.
