'S e aon de [[na h-Eileanan Tarsainn]] a tha ann an '''Rùm''' ([[IPA]]: [rˠuːm]). Tha e suidhichte anns [[na h-Eileanan a-staigh]] san àird a deas [[an t-Eilean Sgitheanach|an Eilein Sgitheanaich]] agus san àird an iar [[Mallaig|Mhallaig]]. Le 40 mìltean ceàrnagach de mheud 's e Rùm an t-eilean as motha de na h-Eileanan Tarsainn.

== An t-Eilean ==

Tha [[Ceann Locha]] ([[Beurla]]: ''Kinloch'') na [[clachan]] as motha anns an eilean, tha e suidhichte san àird an ear an eilean aig ceann ''Loch Scresort'', far a bheil am port-mara cuideachd. Tha Caisteal Cheann Locha faisg air a' bhaile a chaidh a thogail ann an 1900. 'S e "A' Bhrideanach" an t-àite as fhaide san iar dhen eilean. 'S e [[Askival]] (812 meatair/2,664 troigh) a’ [[beinn|bheinn]] as àirde a tha anns an eilean. Tha i suidhichte mu 5 cilemeatair san àird a deas Cinn Locha. Canar "Na Cuilthionnan Ruma" leis na beanntan anns an eilean, tha iad eadar-dhealaichte bho na [[An Cuiltheann|Cuiltheann]] anns an Eilean Sgitheanach. 

A-rèir cunntas-sluaigh 2011 tha 22 daoine a’ fuireach anns an eilean fhèin,<ref>[http://www.scotlandscensus.gov.uk/documents/censusresults/release1c/rel1c2tableA4.pdf National Records of Scotland 2011 Census] Earr-ràdh 2: ''Population and households on Scotland’s inhabited islands'' (PDF). Air a tharraing 10 an Lùnastal 2015</ref> tha iad uile ann an Ceann Locha. Tha an cuid as motha dhiubh ag obair mar rannsachair neo luchd-obrach airson ''Scottish Natural Heritage''. Tha iad ann còmhla leis an teaghlach aca, mar sin tha bun–sgoil beag ann le dìreach [[tidsear]] a-mhàin. Tha talla a’ bhaile, [[bùth]] agus oifis a’ phuist ann an Ceann Locha cuideachd, ach chan eil taigh-seinnse neo eaglais ann. <ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20090312021111/http://www.isleofrum.com/frequentlyaskedq.html "Frequently Asked Questions"] Isle of Rum community. a' tarraing air 27 an Dàmhair 2007.</ref> Tha an aiseag [[MV Loch Nibheis]] a’ ruith eadar [[Mallaig]] is [[Canaigh]], [[Eige]], Rùm is [[Eilean nam Muc]].

== Eachdraidh ==
Bha daoine a’ fuireach ann an Rùm bhon 8mh linn [[RC]], bha na [[Lochlannaich]] ann cuideachd.
B’ àbhaist a bhith timcheall air 450 duine a’ fuireach air an eilean. Ach eadar 1826 is 1828, aig àm nan Fuadaichean, dh’fheumadh a h-uile duine an eilean fhàgail airson Rùm a chur fo [[caora|chaoraich]]. Dh'fhàg 300 duine gu [[Alba Nuadh]] ann an 1826, agus an corr dhiubh ann an 1828 còmhla ri 150 duine eile à [[Eilean nam Muc]].<ref>Love, J.A. "Rhum's Human History" in Clutton-Brock and Ball (1987) duilleag 39-40.</ref> Thuirt fianais-shùl a bha ann nach do dìochuimhnich e gu siorraidh brath:
<blockquote>
 "''the wild outcries of the men and heart-breaking wails of the women and children filled all the air between the mountain shores''".<ref>Waugh, Edwin (1882) ''The Limping Pilgrim'' quoting an unknown shepherd. Recorded in Love, J.A. "Rhum's Human History" in Clutton-Brock and Ball (1987) duilleag 40.</ref></blockquote>

Ach cha robh gnìomhachas caoraich soirbheachail. Sgrìobh an t-eòlaiche-chreagan Hugh Miller:
<blockquote>
''The single sheep-farmer who had occupied the holdings of so many had been unfortunate in his speculations, and had left the island: the proprietor, his landlord seemed to have been as little fortunate as his tenant, for the island itself was in the market; and a report went current at the time that it was on the eve of being purchased by some wealthy Englishman, who purposed converting it into a deer forest. How strange a cycle!'' <ref> Miller, Hugh (1845) ''The Cruise of the Betsey''. National Museums Of Scotland: (2000 reprint). ISBN 978-1-901663-54-9 </ref> </blockquote> 

Reic ''MacLean of Coll'' Rùm don ''Marquess of Salisbury'' ann an 1845, chleachd esan an t-eilean airson [[spòrs]] agus fois a ghabhail. Ann an 1888, cheannaich John Bullough à Lancashire Rùm.
An uair sin bha e aig Sir George Bullough, bha esan a' feuchainn ainm an eilein ag atharrachadh gu Rhum air sgàth 's nach toil leis a bhith na "''Laird of Rum''".

Anns a’ bhliadhna 1957 reic George Bullough an t-eilean don ''Nature Conservancy Council'', ris an canar ''Scottish Natural Heritage'' san làithean an-diugh. Dh’atharraidh iad an t-eilean gu tèarmann-nàdair. A-nise tha Rùm ainmeil airson nan eòin, m. e.: bidh mu 100.000 [[sgrail]] (''Puffinus puffinus'') a' neadachadh an seo gach bliadhna. 
Tha [[Dòbhran|biastan dubha]], [[ròn|ròin]], [[gobhar|gobhair]] is [[iolair]]e-mara ann cuideachd.
