Georgraphic Boundaries
Unlike most of Europe, the boundaries of the Roman Catholic dioceses in Ireland do not conform with the political border between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. One archdiocese, and three dioceses straddle the border.
- Archdiocese of Armagh (includes parts of counties Armagh, Londonderry and Tyrone)
- Diocese of Clogher (includes parts of counties Fermanagh and Tyrone)
- Diocese of Derry (includes parts of counties Londonderry, Antrim and Tyrone)
- Diocese of Kilmore (includes parts of County Fermanagh).

Famous quotes containing the word boundaries:
“We must be generously willing to leave for a time the narrow boundaries in which our individual lives are passed ... In this fresh, breezy atmosphere ... we will be surprised to find that many of our familiar old conventional truths look very queer indeed in some of the sudden side lights thrown upon them.”
—Bertha Honore Potter Palmer (1849–1918)
