Ireland is a sovereign state in Western Europe, occupying about five-sixths of the island of Ireland. The capital and largest city is Dublin, whose metropolitan area is home to around a quarter of the country’s 4.6 million inhabitants. The state shares its only land border with Northern Ireland. It is a unitary, parliamentary republic with an elected president serving as head of state. The head of government is nominated by the lower house of parliament.
爱尔兰是一个西欧主权国家，管辖爱尔兰岛约5/6的面积，陆界仅与北爱尔兰接壤。都柏林是爱尔兰的首都，也是爱尔兰最大的城市，该国有460万人口，其中约1/4居住在大都柏林都会区。爱尔兰属单一制、议会制共和国，由选举产生的总统担任国家元首，政府首脑由下议院任命。
Following the Irish War of Independence and the subsequent Anglo-Irish Treaty, Ireland gained independence from the United Kingdom in 1922. Initially a dominion, Ireland received official British recognition of full legislative independence in the Statute of Westminster of 1931. A new constitution was adopted in 1937, by which the name of the state became “Ireland.” In 1949, Ireland was declared a republic under the Republic of Ireland act 1948.
继爱尔兰独立战争和随后签署的《英爱条约》，爱尔兰于1922年从英国独立出来。起初，它还是英国的领土，1931年《威斯敏斯特条例》赋予爱尔兰完全独立的立法权。1937年，爱尔兰通过了新宪法，国名定为 “爱尔兰”。1949年，按照1948年《爱尔兰共和国法案》，宣布爱尔兰为共和国。
Ireland ranks among the wealthiest countries in the world in terms of GDP per capita. In 1973, Ireland enacted a series of liberal economic policies that resulted in rapid economic growth, coupled with a dramatic rise in inequality. The country achieved considerable prosperity from 1995 to 2007. This was halted by an unprecedented financial crisis that began in 2008, in conjunction with the concurrent global economic crash.
就人均GDP而言，爱尔兰是世界上最富裕的国家之一。1973年，爱尔兰颁布了一系列自由经济政策，经济得到了迅速增长，但也同时严重加剧了不平等。1995到2007年，该国实现了巨大繁荣。 2008年爆发了空前严重的金融危机，同时又出现了全球经济暴跌，两者合力中断了这一增长趋势。
In 2011 and 2013 Ireland was ranked as the seventh-most developed country in the world by the United Nations Human Development Index. It also performs well in several metrics of national performance, including freedom of the press, economic freedom and civil liberties. It pursues a policy of neutrality through non-alignment.
2011年和2013年联合国人类发展指数最发达国家排名中，爱尔兰位居第七。在出版自由、经济自由、公民自由等诸多国家发展指标方面，爱尔兰也表现突出。该国奉行中立与不结盟政策。

In 2012, 35.1% of births were to unmarried women. Annual population growth rates exceeded 2% during the 2002-2006 period, which was attributed to high rates of natural increase and immigration. This rate declined somewhat during the subsequent 2006-2011 period, with an average growth rate of 1.6%.
2011年，爱尔兰人口达458.8252万，比2006年增长了8.2%。截至2011年，该国出生率属欧盟最高（16/1000）。2012年，35.1%的新生儿由未婚女性所生。2002到2006年期间，由于高自然增长率和高移民率，爱尔兰人口年增长率超过了2%，在随后的2006年到2011年期间，增长率有所下降，平均增长率为1.6%.
