Are the six counties of Northern Ireland included?

The map shows the Republic of Ireland’s 26 counties; Northern Ireland, part of the United Kingdom, is drawn in light grey without county lines.

Where does the map come from?

From Natural Earth, a free public-domain map dataset that shows borders as they are in practice. It is a map to learn and colour, not to measure distances.

Can I colour the four provinces?

Yes: under “Colour states, provinces or regions” choose 4 colours and type the counties of Leinster, Munster, Connacht and Ulster (Cavan, Donegal, Monaghan) in the four lists, with the province names as legends; the legend is printed on the map.

Is there a counties worksheet?

Yes: “Numbered, to write the names” numbers the 26 counties from 1 Donegal in the north to 26 Cork, with a line for each and the answers on page two.

Ireland’s 26 counties on A4: blank, named with 12 county towns, or numbered

A primary teacher in Ireland wants the counties for a geography lesson. The default A4 sheet outlines the Republic’s 26 counties, Northern Ireland in light grey. “Mark the capitals” adds 26 county-town dots, Dublin’s ringed as the capital. With the names, all 26 county names fit inside without leader lines, and 12 county towns are named, those whose name differs from the county’s.

The 12 named towns: Lifford, Castlebar, Carrick-on-Shannon, Dundalk, Navan, Naas, Mullingar, Tullamore, Portlaoise, Ennis, Tralee, Clonmel. The other 14, Cork and Galway among them, are dots alone.
“Numbered, to write the names” numbers the counties as in the table, 1 Donegal to 26 Cork, with the answers on page two; on US Letter the sheet turns landscape.

Three sheets from one form: the blank map to colour, the named map for the wall, and the two-page ireland-worksheet.pdf for a test.

How it works

Pick a style: blank with the borders for a quiz, the outline only for drawing, or with the names.
Tick “Mark the capitals” to add a dot for each capital, and choose the paper.
Press Make PDF and print; the lines are vector, so they stay sharp at any size.
