Of the nearly 1,000 place-names shown on this map, all within the Republic of Ireland adhere to that nation's constitution--that the Irish and English language share official status. Thus, Gaelic (Irish) place-names, along with their English variants in parentheses, are shown within Irish-speaking regions while English place-names, along with their Gaelic variants, are shown outside these areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Ireland map is ideal for those researching their Irish ancestry, a perfect tool for business reference, and the clean \u003ci\u003eClassic\u003c\/i\u003e style makes beautiful addition to any decor. It's one of the largest and most detailed maps specifically for Ireland available today. It includes over 1,000 named places including primary and secondary towns, counties, political boundaries, infrastructure, and selected historical sites for both Ireland and Northern Ireland. Per the Republic of Ireland's constitution, the Irish and English languages share official status. In the GaeltachtI, or predominantly Irish-speaking regions, only Irish place-names have official status and are used on signposts. These districts are found within the counties of Cork, Donegal, Galway, Kerry, Mayo, Meath, and Waterford.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe map is encapsulated in heavy-duty 1.6 mil laminate which makes the paper much more durable and resistant to the swelling and shrinking caused by changes in humidity. Laminated maps can be framed without the need for glass, so the frames can be much lighter and less expensive. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMap Scale = 1:550,000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSheet Size = 30\" x 36\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eNational Geographic Maps:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Founded in 1915 as the Cartographic Group, the first division of National Geographic, National Geographic Maps has been responsible for illustrating the world around us through the art and science of mapmaking.Today, National Geographic Maps continues this mission by creating the world's best wall maps, recreation maps, atlases, and globes which inspire people to care about and explore their world.","brand":"National Geographic Maps","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50557030203666,"sku":"9781597752565","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_6125801f-aff0-4889-be65-142532ae0422.jpg?v=1731769226","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/national-geographic-ireland-wall-map-classic-laminated-30-x-36-in-9781597752565","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
