Rural Irish comprise nearly forty percent of the population of the Republic of Ireland and of Northern Ireland, United Kingdom. The Rural Irish speak both Irish Gaelic and English. Beginning in the twelfth century, English incursions imposed a manorial economy on an otherwise village-based Celtic culture and society. Farming, fishing and cattle are mainstays of the rural economy. Settlement patterns vary from dispersed farmsteads to small clustered hamlets. Depending on the size of a farm, inheritance can be partible, or is impartable with primogeniture or ultimogeniture.
