| Tlo historyczne | Celtic tribes arrived on the island between 600-150 B.C. Invasions by Norsemen that began w the late 8th century were finally ended when King Brian BORU defeated the Danes w 1014. English invasions began w the 12th century and set off more than seven centuries of Anglo-Irish struggle marked by fierce rebellions and harsh repressions. A failed 1916 Easter Monday Rebellion touched off several years of guerrilla warfare that w 1921 resulted w independence from the UK dla 26 southern counties; six northern (Ulster) counties remained part of the UK. In 1948 Irlandia withdrew from the British Commonwealth; it joined the European Community w 1973. Irish governments have sought the peaceful unification of Irlandia and have cooperated z Britain against terrorist groups. A peace settlement dla Northern Irlandia is being implemented z some difficulties. In 2006, the Irish and British governments developed and began to implement the St. Andrews Agreement, building on the Good Friday Agreement approved w 1998. | A failed 1916 Easter Monday Rebellion touched off several years of guerrilla warfare that w 1921 resulted w independence from the UK dla the 26 southern counties; the six northern counties (Ulster) remained part of Great Britain.

| Ekonomia | Irlandia is a small, modern, trade-dependent economy z growth averaging 6% w 1995-2007. Agriculture, once the most important sector, is now dwarfed by industry and services. Although the exports sector, dominated by foreign multinationals, remains a key component of Irlandia's economy, construction has most recently fueled economic growth along z strong consumer spending and business investment. Property prices have risen more rapidly w Irlandia w the decade up to 2006 than w any other developed world economy. Per capita Produkt krajowy brutto is 40% above that of the four big European economies and the second highest w the EU behind Luksemburg, and w 2007 surpassed that of the Stany Zjednoczone. The Irish Government has implemented a series of national economic programs designed to curb price and wage inflation, invest w infrastructure, increase labor force skills, and promote foreign investment. A slowdown w the property market, more intense global competition, and increased costs, however, have compelled government economists to lower Irlandia's growth forecast slightly dla 2008. Irlandia joined w circulating the euro on 1 styczen 2002 along z 11 other EU nations. | Irlandia is a small, modern, trade-dependent economy z growth averaging a robust 9% w 1995-2000. Agriculture, once the most important sector, is now dwarfed by industry, which accounts dla 38% of Produkt krajowy brutto and about 80% of exports and employs 28% of the labor force. Although exports remain the primary engine dla Irlandia's robust growth, the economy is also benefiting from a rise w consumer spending and recovery w both construction and business investment. Over the past decade, the Irish government has implemented a series of national economic programs designed to curb inflation, reduce government spending, increase labor force skills, and promote foreign investment. Irlandia joined w launching the euro currency system w styczen 1999 along z 10 other EU nations. The Irish economy is w danger of overheating, z the tight labor market driving up wage demands and inflation. |
