Ireland is split into four provinces (originally 5, thousands of years ago). Ulster, Munster, Leinster and Connacht. Each Province is sub divided into counties. There are 32 counties in Ireland. 9 of the 11 counties in Ulster are currently under indirect British rule. The remaining 26 counties form the Republic of Ireland. The occupied six counties of Ulster are also erroneously referred to as "The North", Northern Ireland" & "Ulster".

Ireland split from Great Britain in the?

Ireland split from Great Britain on the 6th December 1922 under the Government of Ireland Act 1920. Northern Ireland which had by this time been partitioned from Ireland was able to opt out of joining the Free State and staying with the rest of Great Britain. Pretty much because all the politicians were protestant…. Even though there was a lot of Catholics around the region their voice wasn't heard as they had no political representation. And that's when the rows (arguments) started which reached it heights in the 70's & 80's. The whole of Ireland was free and independent until 1650 when Cromwell paid a visit.

Who established Ireland?

Americans normally can't understand this but, like most European countries Ireland just happened. People were in Ireland since Cave Times, and eventually grew into communities. Ireland was then split up into five. They were technically countries. http://www.livinginireland.ie/images/uploads/provinces.gif The fifth one is now part of Leinster. Then in 1167 the Normans came and territories were split up.
