County of Dublin

The County of Dublin (Irish: Contae Átha Cliath ) is the administrative unit of the Irish Republic which contain the town of Dublin, capital and more big city of the Irish Republic, as well as the counties of Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, Fingal and Southern Dublin.

Dublin is localized on the east coast of Ireland in the province of Leinster. The area had the statute of County until its dissolution in 1994. On this date, and in answer to a report/ratio of the the Council of Europe presenting of Ireland like the State more centralized European Union, it was decided that the county of Dublin was ungovernable and problematic for the exercise of the local democracy. The county dissolved and was replaced by three new counties: Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown, Fingal and Dublin-South.

Today of very many organizations, agencies of State or teams sporting continue to operate on the basis of County of Dublin. The county of Dublin is defined today according to the Irish legislation like “area of Dublin”.

Moreover the separate use of the " term; Greater Dublin Area" who is consisted of the Area of Dublin plus the counties of Kildare, Meath and Wicklow added to general confusion. According to the census of 2006 the area of Dublin counted: 1187176 inhabitants is 28% of the national population.
