In Ireland, the term city has somewhat differing meanings in Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Historically, city status in the United Kingdom, and before that in the Kingdom of Ireland, was a ceremonial designation. It carried more prestige than the alternative municipal titles "borough", "town" and "township", but gave no extra legal powers. This remains the case in Northern Ireland, which is still part of the United Kingdom. In the Republic of Ireland, "city" has an additional designation in local government.

  • Il titolo di città in Irlanda viene legalmente riconosciuto dal Local Government Act. Dublino è l'unica città riconosciuta dalla Costituzione irlandese. Storicamente, lo status di città nel Regno Unito, e prima ancora nel regno d'Irlanda, è stata una designazione cerimoniale. La concessione del titolo di città è sinonimo di più prestigio rispetto ai titoli municipali alternativi "borough", "town" and "township", ma non ha fornito ulteriori poteri giuridici. Questo rimane il caso delle città nell'Irlanda del Nord, che è ancora parte del Regno Unito. Nella Repubblica d'Irlanda, "città" ha una designazione nel governo locale. (it)
