'''County Cork''' is a large [[county]] in south-western [[Ireland]], in the province of [[Munster]]. It is largely rural, with upland scenery and an indented coastline with many bays and inlets. It contains the city of [[Cork]] (the second largest city in the [[Republic of Ireland|Republic]] and the third largest in all Ireland), and the towns of Youghal (pronounced ''Yawl''), Cobh (pronounced ''Cove''), Mallow, Bantry, and Skibereen.  The last of these is renowned for its [[newspaper]], the ''Skibereen Eagle'', which once famously warned an oppressive [[Russian]] [[Tsar]] that 'the Skibereen Eagle had its eye on him'.
