Does Northern Ireland have its own established church?

Northern Ireland's religious landscape is a bit different from England and Scotland. While England has the Church of England, and Scotland has the Church of Scotland, Northern Ireland doesn't have a single, officially established church supported by the state. Historically, the Church of Ireland held that position, but it was disestablished in 1871. This means it no longer receives direct state funding or has a special legal status. Today, Northern Ireland is characterized by a mix of religious denominations, including Protestant and Catholic churches, with no single church holding a privileged position. So, while religion plays a significant role in Northern Irish society, it's important to remember that there isn't an "established" church in the same way as in other parts of the UK. It's easy to think that because religion is so prominent, there must be a state church, but that's not the case.
