About
Munster:
Munster (Irish: An Mhumhain) is the southernmost
of the four provinces of Ireland. It comprises the
counties of: Clare, Cork,
Kerry, Limerick, Tipperary,
Waterford. The largest city in Munster is
Cork.
In 1841 before the Great Famine, there were just
under 3 million people living in the province of Munster,
but the population had dropped devastatingly low due
to mass emigration in the 1840's and continued emigration
up until the 1980's.
