The border in Ireland
The term "Irish border" is used to describe 'the border in Ireland'. You are correct in general, we don't say "the French border" in the Pyrenees, we say the French/Spanish border. But this is a somewhat unique case in many ways. The nearest equivalent would be Cyprus but we don't have a 'Cyprus border' article, only Green line. In both cases, it is a sensitive topic so Wikipedia follows the principle of WP:Common name.--John Maynard Friedman (talk) 16:50, 24 March 2019 (UTC)
