Best Answer

The Republic of Ireland (Ireland) broke away from the U.K because of Catholic beliefs. U.K. is Protestant and so is Northern Ireland.

Long story short, England wanted to take over Ireland so that they would have more land,but the Irish rebelled and started a war(I think you could call it that.) .Some people were for it, some people weren't.the north of Ireland was then ruled under British law. People are still unhappy about this,and are still divided because of this. I hope this helps :)
