Why did the Irish Republican Army continue to fight the British after most of Ireland became self governing in 1922?
The Irish Republican Army was formed to fight for an independent Irish Republic, which had been occupied by Britain for somewhere around 700 years. Finally, the British offered a treaty in which Ireland would become a Free State, with membership in the Commonwealth, and with loyalty sworn to the British monarch. Additionally, six counties in Ulster would remain British. The treaty passed with the people of Ireland, but met with strong opposition, particularly from the IRA. The Irish Free State Army was established as the official armed force of Ireland, while the IRA remained as an anti-treaty force. They fought each other in a civil war, with the Irish Free State being the victor in that dispute. Groups calling themselves IRA today really don't have as much in common with the IRA under Michael Collins as they claim to, but their declared intent is to force the British to capitulate the remaining six counties to Ireland. Additionally, most of them see the government of Ireland as illegitimate.
