a period called “Celtic Tiger” took place. It stood for economic growth, a lower
unemployment rate, rising numbers of immigration and a better living in the Republic of
Ireland. According to the numbers of a research in 2006, there were about 420,000 non-Irish
people living in the Republic of Ireland, what was 10% of the entire population at that time.
