national symbols of Ireland
Slide 9 - Slide
The harp is also a very important Irish symbol. In fact, it was so Irish, the British feared it would spark nationalism. Therefore, they banned all harps from the land - and executed all harp players!
The 'shamrock' is Ireland's most important symbol. Its three leaves stand for the Holy Trinity (Father, Son, Holy Ghost), linking it to St. Patrick.
Ireland, as Britain, has a lively 'pub culture'. The most famous Irish drink is Guinness, a stout beer.
Legend has it that in Ireland, at the end of a rainbow, you will find a pot of gold.
