Ulster was a Unionist area while the South was a predominantly nationalist area.
The war of independence caused the British government to give into the Irish people's want for self determination.
The Unionist wouldn't stand for Ulster being separated from Britain, so Ireland was split into 2 different states, under the same King.
The Free State (The South) became a colony similar to Canada after that, that is until it left the commonwealth, with the drafting of the 1936 constitution.
While the North remained a part of Britain.
cause its north and south
Ireland was partitioned under a treaty between Britain and Ireland which came into force in 1922. The treaty was negotiated by representatives of the two countries.
Between 1920 and 1922 after the island of Ireland was partitioned
The island of Ireland contains the Republic of Ireland, which is officially known as Ireland or Éire, and Northern Ireland.
The Act of 1920, partitioned Ireland into two parts: the independent 'Republic of Ireland' and 'Northern Ireland' - 'Northern Ireland' remained loyal to Great Britain.
In 1922, as a result of a treaty, Ireland was partitioned, creating Northern Ireland with 6 counties, and what is now the Republic of Ireland having 26 counties.
The majority in the Republic of Ireland is Roman Catholic; in Northern Ireland, various Protestant sects. This is why Ireland is partitioned.
Northern Ireland did not exist in the 1890s, as it was only created in 1922 when it was partitioned from the rest of Ireland. In the 1890s, all of Ireland was part of the British Empire and so would have used the pound sterling.
Ireland became part of it, in 1801. Ireland then gained independence in 1922, though not all of it left. Most of it did, but Ireland was partitioned, creating what is now called the Republic of Ireland, which is not in the United Kingdom, and Northern Ireland, which is in the United Kingdom.
The northern Ireland state was gerrymandered to give a unionist protestant majority over the nationalist catholic population of northern Ireland. If the whole of the province or nine countys of ulster had been partitioned into northern Ireland then it would have been 50 50 or in time unionists might even have been a minority.
From 1801 until 1922, all of Ireland was part of the UK. In 1922 Ireland was partitioned, which for the first time created what is known as Northern Ireland. It has remained in the United Kingdom, while the rest of Ireland, now known as the Republic of Ireland, became independent.
The entire island was once a part of Britain. The majority of people in the north of Ireland wanted to remain united to Britain. The rest of Ireland wanted a republic. As a solution Ireland was partitioned (separated) and the south was given its freedom while the six counties of Northern Ireland remained British.
It was the year that Ireland was partitioned. That created Northern Ireland, while the rest of Ireland became independent. That would be the part that is now known as the Republic of Ireland.
