The reasons there was terrorism in Ireland are long and complex and can be traced back through over 800 years of Irish history. In short, Ireland was under British rule and wanted independence and in 1922 most, though not all, of Ireland got independence. The part that remained under British still wanted independence and some there resorted to violence to achieve that and others there who wanted to stay under British rule also resorted to violence. Between 1969 and 1994 in particular, there was a lot of violence, but a peace process was started and the terrorism stopped and since the signing of what is known as the Good Friday Agreement in 1998, things have been much more peaceful.

∙ 9y agoThe Irish Republican Army no longer exists. During their active time it was because they believed it would help them achieve their aim, in part. It was further instigated by the use of terrorism by loyalist paramilitaries, as well as collusion between the British and said loyalist paramilitaries (some reading on the B-Specials and Ulster Defence Regiment will yield more information on this).
