Trinity College Dublin, abbreviated as TCD, officially titled The College of the Holy and Undivided Trinity of Queen Elizabeth near Dublin, is the sole constituent college of the University of Dublin, Ireland. Founded in 1592 by Queen Elizabeth I, who issued a royal charter on the advice of the Archbishop of Armagh and Lord Chancellor of Ireland, Adam Loftus, it was modelled after the collegiate universities of both Oxford and Cambridge, with whom it shares a unique relationship. It is one of the seven "ancient universities" of Great Britain and Ireland, and has significantly influenced Irish literature, as well as areas of science, medicine, and law.
