Answer:

Christianity!

Step-by-step explanation:

Ireland was (and is) a very catholic country. Legend has it that St Patrick explained the Holy Trinity using a Shamrock and brought Catholicism to Ireland. Paradoxically, St Patrick was British. Celebrating St Patrick's is both a Catholic and Irish thing to do but with the years has become more of a laic celebration on the surface.
