Ireland is a land filled with great storytellers, musicians and religious fervor. The Irish love their land, and the center of social life in Ireland is the Pub. There, stories are shared, tears are wept, songs are shared, and Guiness Stout is the drink of choice. The art of conversation is cherished in Ireland. And so is the gift of breaking out into song at a moment's notice. Most of Ireland is Catholic. The North (Belfast) is Protestant. Irish are noted for the sense of humor and spontaneous laughter. They are traditionally noted to love folk music (fiddling) where singing and dancing is deeply rooted part of the culture that goes way back.
