Gaelic Games
Gaelic games ( ga, Cluichí Gaelacha) are a set of sports played worldwide, though they are particularly popular in Ireland, where they originated. They include Gaelic football, hurling, Gaelic handball and rounders. Football and hurling, the most popular of the sports, are both organised by the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA). Women's versions of hurling and football are also played: camogie, organised by the Camogie Association of Ireland, and ladies' Gaelic football, organised by the Ladies' Gaelic Football Association. While women's versions are not organised by the GAA (with the exception of handball, where men's and women's handball competitions are both organised by the GAA Handball organisation), they are closely associated with it but are still separate organisations. Gaelic games clubs exist all over the world. They are Ireland's most popular sports, ahead of rugby union and association football.

Young Irelanders
Young Ireland ( ga, Éire Óg, ) was a political and cultural movement in the 1840s committed to an all-Ireland struggle for independence and democratic reform. Grouped around the Dublin weekly ''The Nation'', it took issue with the compromises and clericalism of the larger national movement, Daniel O'Connell's Repeal Association, from which it seceded in 1847. Despairing, in the face of the Great Famine, of any other course, in 1848 Young Irelanders attempted an insurrection. Following the arrest and the exile of most of their leading figures, the movement split between those who carried the commitment to "physical force" forward into the Irish Republican Brotherhood, and those who sought to build a "League of North and South" linking an independent Irish parliamentary party to tenant agitation for land reform. Origins The Historical Society Many of those later identified as Young Ireland first gathered in 1839 at a reconvening of the College Historical Society in Dublin. Th ...

Éire Óg Anacarty GAA
() is Irish for "Ireland", the name of both an island in the North Atlantic and the sovereign state of the Republic of Ireland which governs 84% of the island's landmass. The latter is distinct from Northern Ireland, which covers the remainder of the northeast of the island. The same name is also sometimes used in English ( ). Etymology The modern Irish ''Éire'' evolved from the Old Irish word ''Ériu'', which was the name of Ireland and of a Gaelic goddess.

''Ériu'' has been derived from reconstructed Archaic Irish ''*Īweriū'', Koch, John T.

This suggests descent from the Proto-Indo-European *''piHwerjon-'' ("fertile land" or "abundant land"), from the adjective ''*piHwer-'' ...
