question: According to what national personification, would land's named or derived from "Erin" have a feminine personification?
answer: Ireland
context: Title: Uncle Sam
  Passage: Uncle Sam (initials U.S.) is a common national personification of the American government or the United States in general that, according to legend, came into use during the War of 1812 and was supposedly named for Samuel Wilson.  The actual origin is obscure.  Since the early 19th century, Uncle Sam has been a popular symbol of the US government in American culture and a manifestation of patriotic emotion.  While the figure of Uncle Sam represents specifically the government, the goddess Columbia represents the United States as a nation.
  Title: Juan Bimba
  Passage: Juan Bimba is a fictitious character used in the past as the national personification of Venezuela, but is now regarded as obsolete.  According to the local folklore of the region of Cumaná the name comes from a mentally ill local inhabitant of the 1850s; but this version is doubtful.  It was first used by Juan Vicente González, a Venezuelan columnist of the 19th century as an example of the average Venezuelan peasant, the prototype of the common people.  The cartoon was drawn by cartoonist Mariano Medina Febres in the 1930s
  Title: Erin
  Passage: Erin is a Hiberno-English derivative of the Irish word ""Éirinn"". " Éirinn" is the dative case of the Irish word for Ireland - "Éire", genitive "Éireann", the dative being used in prepositional phrases such as ""go hÉirinn"" "to Ireland", ""in Éirinn"" "in Ireland", ""ó Éirinn"" "from Ireland".  The dative has replaced the nominative in a few regional Irish dialects (particularly Galway-Connamara and Waterford).  Poets and nineteenth-century Irish nationalists used "Erin" in English as a romantic name for Ireland.  Often, "Erin's Isle" was used.  In this context, along with Hibernia, Erin is the name given to the female personification of Ireland, but the name was rarely used as a given name, probably because no saints, queens, or literary figures were ever called Erin.
  Title: Lady of the Mountain
  Passage: The "Lady of the Mountain" (Fjallkona) is the female incarnation (national personification) of Iceland.  While she symbolises what Icelanders considered to be genuine and purely Icelandic, in her purity she reflects a deep-seated, but unattainable, wish of Icelanders to be a totally independent nation.  Fjallkonan is thus not only a national symbol, she also represents the national vision, the nation's ultimate dream.
  Title: Ibu Pertiwi
  Passage: Ibu Pertiwi (English: Mother Prithvi or Mother Earth ) is a national personification of Indonesia, the allegory of "Tanah Air" (Indonesian: "land and water" ), the Indonesian Motherland.  Since prehistoric times the tribes of the Indonesian archipelago often revered earth and nature spirits as a life giving mother, a female deity of nature.  After the adoption of Hinduism in the early first millennium, this Mother figure was identified with Prithvi, the Hindu mother goddess of Earth, who was thus given the name "Pertiwi".

  Title: Mother Serbia

  Title: Sam's Army
  Passage: Sam's Army, now defunct, was an unofficial supporters' group for the United States men's national soccer team.  The name of the group derives from Uncle Sam, a national personification of the United States, and the Scottish supporters' group the Tartan Army.  Sam's Army debuted at a 1995 U.S. Cup game following the 1994 FIFA World Cup.  In 2010 there were more than 14,000 members of Sam's Army, and the organization reported having members around the world.  Sam's Army was known for wearing all red and usually standing behind a goal during United States national team matches.  George Vecsey of "The New York Times" described Sam's Army as, "a relative handful of goofy characters in red outfits... who follow the American team around the globe."
