The name Erin is an extremely old one that has long been associated with Ireland ('Erin go bragh' means 'Ireland forever'). Legend has it that Erin (or Eire) was one of three goddesses who represented peace, love and joy. Her sisters, Fodla and Banba, represented hope and love respectively, leaving Erin with peace. Therefore, one meaning of the name Erin is 'peace'. Technically, though, Erin is though to come from the Irish Gaelic word Eireann, which means either 'of Ireland' or simply 'Ireland'.

Northern Island is part of and ruled by Great Britain. Unlike the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland resisted independence and chose to join with Britain as one country and split in dissent with Ireland over accepting Britainâ??s peace terms following the Irish revolution.
Northern Ireland was created as a distinct division of the United Kingdom on 3 May 1921 under the Government of Ireland Act 1920. However it wasn't recognised as being officially separate from the rest of Ireland until the signing of the Anglo Irish Treaty on 6 December 1921, which set up what people refer to as Partition. This came into effect one year later on 6th Dec 1922 and Northern Ireland opted out of joining the Irish Free State as the rest of Ireland was then known. The Irish Free State became referred to as Eire as a result of the Constitution of Ireland in 1937 and fully became a Republic on 18 April 1949 .

Which Irish Republican Army? The IRA under Michael Collins had the goal of securing the independence of Ireland from Britain, and establishing Ireland as a Republic. The Provisional IRA, Continuity IRA, Real IRA, Irish National Liberation Army, etc. had the goal of trying to force the six counties of Northern Ireland into a union with the rest of Ireland. It should be noted the majority in Northern Ireland remain opposed to union with the Republic of Ireland, and that talk of a "reunified" Ireland is utter nonsense, as Ireland was never unified to begin with.
