Demography of Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland is the smallest of the four countries of the United Kingdom in terms of both area and population, containing 2.9% of the total population and 5.7% of the total area of the United Kingdom. The island of Ireland consists of Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, a sovereign state independent of the United Kingdom. Northern Ireland contains 28.3% of the total population and 16.5% of the total area of the island of Ireland.
Northern Ireland, as recorded by the UK Census 2011, has a population of 1,810,863, an increase of 125,800 (7.5%) over the ten-year period since the last census.〔(Population at Census Day 2011: Usually resident population by single year of age and sex -Table 1 NISRA September 2012 ), Accessed 16 August 2013〕 The population density is 133 people per km2, about half that of the United Kingdom as a whole but about twice that of the Republic.〔(Country Profiles: Key Statistics - Northern Ireland, August 2012 ), Accessed 5 February 2014〕 The Belfast metropolitan area dominates in population terms, with over a third of the inhabitants of Northern Ireland.
Unlike most of the Republic, Northern Ireland has a large proportion of Protestants and its people speak dialects of English heavily influenced by the Scots language, largely because of the 17th century Ulster Plantation. Also unlike the Republic, a large proportion of people in Northern Ireland have a British national identity. Many people in Northern Ireland have a Northern Irish national identity, whether in addition to a British or Irish identity or by itself.
