Did you know that Ireland is not a part of the United Kingdom? It isn’t. Well, Northern Ireland is but Ireland is notthough both are part of the British Isles.*
Oh, you didn’t know there were two Irelands? Then you need to watch this entertaining video which explains all that and much, much more.
Note: I originally had all this confused. Apparently, I didn’t watch the video closely enough.
