Ireland are not and have never been under the control of Great Britain. The United Kingdom consists of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, the upper part of the island of Ireland, however Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland are two different countries in their own right, although there have been many issues over the years over the National Identity of Northern Ireland, whether it should belong to Britain or become part of a United Ireland. Ireland itself has always been independent, to my knowledge, developing from Celtic traditions into the heavily Western-influenced country we see today.
