Northern Ireland is the smallest of the four political divisions that make up the United Kingdom. Belfast is Northern Ireland's capital and largest city.
Northern Ireland occupies the northeastern corner of the island of Ireland. It takes up about a sixth of the island. The independent Republic of Ireland occupies the rest of the island. Northern Ireland is often called Ulster. Ulster was the name of one of the four provinces of Ireland until 1920, when Northern Ireland was separated from the rest of Ireland. The old province of Ulster consisted of nine counties. In 1922, six of these counties chose to remain part of the United Kingdom when the Irish Free State was formed. The six counties together became the province of Northern Ireland.
