 Irish rebel songs comprise some of Ireland's most well-known songs. Among them is Amhrán na bhFiann, now the national anthem of the Republic of Ireland. The GAA, being a nationalist entity, tends to play the anthem before matches in [[Northern Ireland]] despite NI being a part of the United Kingdom.
-==Drinks==
-[[Guinness]], with its angelic [[harp]], is the undisputed champion of Irish beer, but the [[Guinness World Records|Guinness World Record]] for the biggest Guinness drinkers in the world goes to the UK, surprisingly. [[Ripley's Believe It or Not!|Believe it or not]], this famous [[stout]] is now owned by a British company.
-==Sports==
-The GAA's popularity, particularly with [[Gaelic football]] and [[hurling]] (other GAA-sanctioned sports, such as [[rounders]], exist, though they aren't as popular), coexists with [[rugby]]. The Irish rugby team has played six test matches with [[Samoa]]; one time, Samoa actually beat Ireland.
