Well the participants of the Easter rising did it to inspire others to take up arms for Irish independence even though the knew they wouldn't win. The Easter Rising was just one event in a much more complex time for Irish history, though it certainly was a significant event. It could not be said to have exclusively led to partition. Factors for the eventual partition were already in place, with people in what would become Northern Ireland favouring remaining in the Union Kingdom and against Home Rule, while others held the opposite view.
