The Republic of Ireland (officially Ireland), asovereign state that covers five-sixths of the island. Its capital is Dublin.Northern Ireland, a part of the United Kingdom that the remaining sixth. Its capital is Belfast.Traditionally, Ireland is subdivided into four provinces:Connacht (west), Leinster (east), Munster (south), and Ulster (north). In a system that developed between the 13th and 17th centuries, Ireland hasthirty-two traditional counties.[8] Twenty-six of the counties are in the Republic of Ireland, and six counties are in Northern Ireland.The six of Ulster's nine counties that constitute Northern Ireland are all in the province of Ulster (which has nine counties in total). As such, "Ulster" is often used as a synonym for Northern Ireland, although Ulster and Northern Ireland are neither synonymous nor co-terminous. Counties Dublin,Cork, Limerick, Galway, Waterford and Tipperaryhave been broken up into smaller administrative areas. However, they are still considered by theOrdnance Survey Ireland to be official counties. The counties in Northern Ireland are no longer used for local governmental purposes, though their traditional boundaries are still used for informal purposes such as sports leagues and in some other cultural, ceremonial or tourism contexts.[9]

Which country has Northern Ireland ruled?
Northern Ireland has a devolved government, as does Scotland and wales and the city of London. This means they make their own laws on things like education, health, environment etc. There are reserved matters which they may not make laws for, these are things like immigration, tax, nationality, defence etc. These are created by parliament. England does not have a devolved government, all its laws come straight from parliament. The whole of the UK elects members to Parliament every 4 years in a general election which can be called at anytime within the 4 year period by the prime minister. The party with the largest number of votes from the UK gets to form the government of the united kingdom. It is currently the labour party with Gordon Brown as its leader. Each of the devolved governments have a First Minister, kind of like a prime minister, except for northern Ireland which as two. The First Minister and Deputy First Minister. this is because 45% of people in Ni are Irish and 55% are British. The British want to stay with the UK, the Irish want Ni to join the republic and the island to be one country separate from the UK. One party cannot be in overall power in Ni as is the case of most governments around the world. If a unionist party were in power, they would make British laws which the Irish would not like and visa verse, so they share power. Department of Environment- Run by Unionist party Department of Education- Run by Irish National party etc etc

When did the british occupy northern Ireland?
The whole of Ireland used to be part of the United Kingdom from 1800-1920. In 1920, the British Government agreed to let Ireland leave, because of the protests and unrest in the country. However, there were more protests among the large Protestant population who wanted to remain part of the United Kingdom. As a compromise, Ireland was divided. The majority of Ireland became a new country, and Northern Ireland was kept as part of the United Kingdom, even though it had a sizeable Catholic population who opposed this. Northern Ireland was given a large amount of autonomy and had its own Parliament and Prime Minister. However, since there were a slightly larger number of Protestants than Catholics, the unionists always held a majority in the Parliament, and the "majority rules" nature of it meant the republicans were frequently excluded. Nethertheless, Northern Ireland was relatively stable up until the 1960s. The growth of unrest in Northern Ireland led to more British troops being sent in to help the police deal with The Troubles, as they became to be known. This didn't always work out, especially at Bloody Sunday in 1972. Soon afterwards, the British Government abolished the government of Northern Ireland and placed it under direct control (although Northern Ireland was still represented in the British Parliament). The Northern Ireland government was recently restored, with the unionists and republicans sharing power.
