<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The ''Irish Sea'' (Irish: '''Muir Éireann''' or '''Muir Meann'''; Scottish Gaelic: '''Muir Èireann''' or '''Muir Mhanainn''';Manx: '''Mooir Vannin''' or '''Y Keayn Yernagh'''; Welsh: '''Môr Iwerddon''', Scots: '''Erse Sea''') separates the [[Island of Ireland]] and [[Great Britain]]. <br />
<br />
It is connected to the [[Atlantic Ocean]] in the south by St George's Channel, and in the north by the North Channel. <br />
<br />
Anglesey is the largest island within the Irish Sea, followed by the [[Isle of Man]]. The sea is occasionally, but rarely, referred to as the '''Manx Sea'''.<br />
<br />
The sea is of significant economic importance to regional trade, shipping and transport, fishing, and power generation in the form of wind power and nuclear plants. Annual traffic between Great Britain and Ireland amounts to over 12 million passengers and 17 million tonnes of traded goods.<br />
<br />
All four home nations of the [[United Kingdom]] have shores on the Irish Sea.<br />
