Ireland
Saint Mel or Moel died in 488. He is said to have been a Briton who came to Ireland with Saint Patrick, his uncle, with whom he worked until he was ordained in Ardagh. He is one of the earliest Irish saints and gave the religious veil to Saint Brigid. See the article in Wikipedia.
Other saints: The Five Wounds of Christ
Portugal
Legend states that before the Battle of Ourique in 1139, Christ appeared to D. Afonso Henriques, promising victory over the Moors and instructing him to use the Five Wounds on the nation’s coat of arms. The Five Wounds are a powerful, enduring symbol of Portuguese national, religious, and cultural history.
Liturgical colour: red
Red is the colour of fire and of blood. Liturgically, it is used to celebrate the fire of the Holy Spirit (for instance, at Pentecost) and the blood of the martyrs.
