Why every irrational number is also a rational number but not every rational number is a natural number?

Every irrational number is NOT a rational number. For example, sqrt(2) is irrational but not rational.

So, -2 is a rational number but not a counting number (it is an integer, though). Also, 2/3 is a rational number but not a whole, counting number or a natural number.
