    Just wondering - is there? There are some small countries (e.g. the Vatican - although I reckon there'll be loads of us there), and some "closed" countries (North Korea), so I wonder if we are in every country?

    Hmmm , interesting question poster .
    I'm not sure how you'd find out the answer.

    Would it be ringing every Irish bar abroad and seeing if they could help for a start ?

    I think you'd need to start by defining what 'an Irish' person is? Both parents Irish? One parent Irish? Grand parents? Somewhere along the line?

    EDIT : Nevermind, I read is there currently an Irish person born in every country of the world

    Yes. Yes there is. Every single country. We’re like an air borne virus, no corner of the globe is safe.

    More importantly, is there an Irish bar for them to go to.
