County Limerick
Munster province area
County Limerick is one of Ireland's 32 counties, located in the southwestern province of Munster.
Its principal city, Limerick, sits on the River Shannon.
The county gave its name to the limerick verse form, though the connection between the five-line rhyme and the place remains obscure: He's from County Limerick but swears he's never written one.
