Home rule was a significant factor in the partition of Ireland, but it was not the sole reason. The demand for home rule by Irish nationalists clashed with the interests of Unionists, particularly in Ulster, who opposed any form of Irish self-governance. The tensions surrounding home rule, exacerbated by religious and cultural divisions, ultimately contributed to the political landscape that led to partition in 1921. Other factors, such as British political calculations and the impact of the 1916 Easter Rising, also played crucial roles in the decision to partition Ireland.
