Ireland–Isle of Man relations refers to the current and historical bilateral relationship and cultural and economic ties between Ireland and the Isle of Man. ==History and Culture==
There is a long history of relations and cultural exchange between the Isle of Man and Ireland. Some sources state that Christianity was brought to the Isle of Man around 500 AD by Celts from Ireland, perhaps by St. Patrick himself. Trade links between the islands have existed for a long time, owing to their geographic proximity. Until the Isle of Man was integrated into the commercial system of England in 1765, the Isle of Man's trade with Ireland surpassed that of any other country. Both countries have branches of the Celtic league, and there are regular music festivals and other cultural events that celebrate their common Celtic heritage. The languages of Ireland, Irish Gaelic and Isle of Man, Manx Gaelic are also similar, and in 1947, Irish Taoiseach Éamon de Valera spearheaded efforts to save the dying Manx gaelic language. Additional joint work on language preservation was commenced as recently as 2008. According to a 2011 census, 1.9% of the population of the Isle of Man were born in Ireland.
