Derrylin is a mainly Nationalist community (80 per cent Roman Catholic) which prospered from the reopening of the link with the Republic in 2000. This was the heart of the Quinn Empire before its recent troubles with Quinns employing some 2000 workers locally. http://www.irishcentral.com/news/Sean-Quinn-once-Irelands-richest-man-loses-everything-119906794.html
