Éire (Éire)
Is stát í Éire ar an gcuid is mó d'oileán na hÉireann, amach ó chósta thiar-thuaidh na hEorpa. eIs le Tuaisceart Éireann, atá laistigh den Ríocht Aontaithe, an chuid eile den oileán. Éire an teideal oifigiúil atá ar an stát as Gaeilge – leis an gcur síos oifigiúil (Poblacht na hÉireann). Cé gur fhan an Phoblacht neodrach le linn an Dara Chogaidh Domhanda agus cogaí eile ó shin, is ballstát de na Náisiúin Aontaithe agus den Aontas Eorpach í, ach ní dheachaigh sí isteach in ECAT, ar eagraíocht míleata é.
