Run away to a new job on the Emerald Isle
The Republic of Ireland (also known as Éire) sits in Europe, just west of the UK. The country occupies the majority of the island of Ireland, bar Northern Ireland in its north-eastern corner (see Chemistry World, January 2017, p64), which is part of the UK. It has a population of 4.75 million, with roughly a third calling the capital city, Dublin, home.
