On 31st July 1893 the Gaelic League was founded in Dublin by Douglas Hyde, Eoin MacNeill, Father Eugene O'Growney and four others. It was a movement to encourage the traditional Irish language and to popularised 'Irish' entertainments such as fiddling, piping, dancing, reciting poetry, and listening to history lectures. The organization elected Douglas Hyde to be its President and he stayed in office for 22 years. The Gaelic League was non-sectarian and apolitical. Douglas Hyde was a Protestant. Of note is the fact that Hyde was elected the first President of Ireland in 1937.
