Irish Diaspora

The Irish Diaspora refers to the global community of people of Irish descent who have migrated from Ireland over centuries and settled in various countries. Due to factors like economic hardship, political conflicts, and the Great Famine in the 19th century, many Irish people emigrated, especially to the United States, the UK, Canada, Australia, and beyond. Today, the Irish Diaspora maintains strong cultural ties to Ireland through traditions, genealogy, and community networks, shaping the identity of Irish descendants worldwide.
