Ireland covers 68,883 square km of land and 1,390 square km of water, making it the 121st largest nation in the world. Ireland is a limestone plateau rimmed by coastal highlands characterized by many lakes, bogs, and scattered low ridges. Much of the coastline is untamed, adding breathtaking scenery as one of this country’s major draw cards. The Irish Republic is bounded on the north by the North Channel, which separates it from Scotland; on the northeast by Northern Ireland; and on the east and southeast by the Irish Sea and St. George’s Channel, which separate it from England and Wales. To the west, from north to south, the coast is washed by the Atlantic Ocean.
