It is on the island of Ireland. It is part of the United Kingdom though, which consists of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Between 1801 and 1922, all of the island of Ireland was part of the United Kingdom. Then most of Ireland became independent and the part that then became known as Northern Ireland stayed part of the United Kingdom.
