Saint Patrick, the foremost patron saint of Ireland, is commemorated on Saint Patrick's Day, a religious and cultural holiday celebrated on 17 March. The day marks the arrival of Christianity in Ireland and serves as a celebration of Irish heritage and culture. The day is observed with public parades, festivals, and the wearing of green attire or shamrocks. It is also a time for Christians to attend church services, with the Lenten restrictions on fasting and alcohol lifted for the day. Saint Patrick, a 5th-century Christian missionary and bishop, played a significant role in evangelizing the pagan Irish to Christianity and is known for converting thousands. Modern Saint Patrick's Day celebrations have been influenced by the Irish diaspora, particularly in North America, where the holiday has historically been a larger celebration than in Ireland. The festivities have expanded globally, with famous landmarks around the world being illuminated in green as part of Tourism Ireland's "Global Greening Initiative." However, the holiday has faced criticism for its commercialization and connections to drinking culture, as well as for fostering negative stereotypes of the Irish people.

The tradition of celebrating St. George's Day had waned by the end of the 18th century after the union of England and Scotland.

Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha is a British Overseas Territory comprised of the islands of Saint Helena, Ascension Island, and the archipelago of Tristan da Cunha. The islands have a rich history, having been discovered by Portuguese explorers in the early 16th century. The English East India Company was granted a charter to govern Saint Helena in 1657, and the island was subsequently fortified and colonized. Saint Helena gained international recognition as the chosen place of exile for Napoleon Bonaparte from 1815 until his death in 1821. Ascension Island and Tristan da Cunha were also strategically important during World War II, serving as bases for Allied forces in the Battle of the Atlantic. In 2009, the three territories were granted equal status under a new constitution, and the territory was renamed "Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha." Today, the islands maintain their unique cultural and historical significance within the British Overseas Territory.
