In what year were the British and Irish Lions formed?

The first "Lions" tour to Australia and New Zealand was in 1888 although it had no Irish players in it and was not sanctioned by the RFU or the other Unions. The next was in 1891 to South Africa and had full RFU status. They presented the Currie cup to the best provincial side they faced and it is still in use today. The official backing of the RFU gave the team the title English Rugby Foootball team but it had 4 Scotts in it and was retrospectively called the British Isles. The 1896 British Isles tour of South Africa contained all four home union players. Other tours to New Zealand Australia South Africa and Argentina followed. In 1924 the official title was the British Isles Rugby Union Team but due to the heraldic lion emblem on their tie they picked up the name the "Lions". It was known as the British Lions from 1950-2001. The title is currently the British and Irish Lions.

Where are the british lions touring in 2014 and 2015 and 2016 and 2017?

The British & Irish Lions only tour once every four years. They will tour Australia this year (2013) and will likely then tour New Zealand in 2017 and South Africa in 2021. However, there is speculation that Argentina could be added to the 4-year touring cycle - with the Lions possibly touring there in 2021. If this happened, the next South Africa tour would be pushed back to 2025.
