Irish Catholics (Irish: Caitlicigh na hÉireann) are an ethnoreligious group native to Ireland[12][13] whose members are both Catholic and Irish. The diaspora and the descendants of Irish Catholics includes millions of Americans [14] and Australians.[15][16][17] In countries like the United States and Australia, many Catholics descend from Irish immigrants/migrants who passed down their faith.
