What country is Southern Ireland com?

Southern Ireland is an incorrect term for what is the Republic of Ireland, officially known as Ireland or Éire in the Irish language. Northern Ireland does exist, and for this reason people often use the term Southern Ireland. Northern Ireland consists of 6 counties that are in the north-east of Ireland. In fact, the most northerly point on the island of Ireland is not in Northern Ireland. It is Malin Head, which is in county Donegal, which is one of the 26 counties in the Republic of Ireland. See the map below in the related links, which shows all the counties of Ireland, with the 6 from Northern Ireland enclosed by the red line.
