Ireland (IE) is covered on EconEarth’s interactive globe with economy, market, and country data drawn from the same dataset used in the live app.
A small open economy that hosts the European operations of global technology and pharmaceutical firms. Headline output can look spectacular because of those multinationals; the underlying Irish economy is smaller and more ordinary. Housing is scarce and expensive, and a change in international tax rules would matter more here than almost anywhere.
