A late 19th century view of Donegal Place, in the city centre of Belfast, the capital and largest city of Northern Ireland, standing on the banks of the River Lagan on the east coast. Belfast was a major port playing an important role in the Industrial Revolution in Ireland, earning it the nickname "Linenopolis" as a major centre of Irish linen production, tobacco-processing and rope-making. Shipbuilding was also a key industry; the Harland and Wolff shipyard, which built the RMS Titanic, was the world's largest shipyard.
