Clare — The Banner County
Dublin grew up around three natural harbours: Portobello, Ringsend and Sandymount. These ports became busy trading centres during the Middle Ages, particularly for wine and wool exports. They declined in importance following the silting up of the harbour mouth. By the 18th century, the port of Dublin had become the leading trade centre in Ireland. In recent decades, Dublin has seen rapid economic growth. This has been associated with expansion into adjacent areas such as South Leinster, Fingal and North Dublin. The Greater Dublin Area now covers some 50 square kilometres (20 sq mi), roughly equivalent to the size of Belfast, and includes parts of six local government districts. The city is served by four international airports: Dublin Airport, George Best Belfast International Airport, Shannon Airport and Knock Airport. Dublin is the seat of the Oireachtas, the national parliament of Ireland. The city is also the location of Government Buildings, the seat of the President of Ireland.— The Lakeland County County Fermanagh is located in Northern Ireland.
