County quiz series: What is Co Kerry's nickname?

Eva Osborne

Ireland’s 32 counties each carry their own stories, quirks, and fierce local pride, and now it’s time to put that knowledge to the test.

BreakingNews.ie is launching a county quiz series, inviting readers to see just how well they truly know the places that shape our island.

From sporting giants to famous landmarks, Irish celebrities to long-debated trivia, each quiz will celebrate the colour and character of a different county.

And where better to begin than Kerry, a county that inspires loyalty like few others. Whether you know it as the home of Gaelic football royalty, the land of soaring mountains, or the keeper of some of Ireland’s richest traditions, Kerry is a place with a personality all its own.

As the first quiz in our series, it sets the bar high: a mix of history, sport, and geography will separate locals from tourists.
