Clíodhna Irish goddess, sometimes identified as a goddess of love and beauty.
"In Old Irish, Clídna, later Clíodhna and modernized Clíona [kleena] belonged to the Tuatha Dé Danann and in legend gave her name to one of the three great waves of Ireland, Tonn Chlídhna, which has been identidied with Glandore harbour. In the Finn-tales, Clídna is one of the three beautiful daughters of Libra, poet to the sea-god Manannán mac Lir. In later legend, she is fairy-woman to the MacCarthys."
What was the political situation in Ireland by 1918?
The Liberal party had been in power leading up to the War and they were trying to pass Home Rule. They were backed by the Irish Nationalist party, a party that they relied on to maintain their advantage over the conservatives.
When the war started the opposing factions (Nationalists and Unionists)dropped the issue in order to fight the common enemy, Germany (though some militant nationalists saw an Imperial Germany as an ally against Britain).
After the war the Liberal party failed to get back into power, but by then the quest for Home Rule had gone so far that it was passed anyway by 1927.
The Parties within Ireland specifically were mainly the Irish Nationalists (eire) and the Ulster Unionists (Ulster). Both had militant groups within them with the INP being linked with the Irish Volunteers and the UU being linked with the Ulster Volunteer Force. Sinn Fein was also present at this time and although pushing for similar outcomes as the INP, they were more sperate and rogue.
There had been rebellions previous to 1918, but they were unsuccessful largely down to the superior numbers, training and equipment of the Britsh army. Also the church would not support the armed uprisings claiming that "They were a pointless act of bloodshed doomed to failure". This put off many would be activists who would not move without the churches backing.
Hope this helps.
Almost immediately after WW1 civil war broke out in Ireland (1919-21) between Irish Nationalists (mainly Roman Cahtolic) and those who wanted to remain part of the United Kingdom (Protestants). The war was fought with exceptional viciousness. The British government used a band of ruthless irregulars, nicknamed the "Black 'n Tans". For most practical purposes the Republic of Ireland gained independence in 1921.

What clothes should you pack for a trip to Ireland in September?
Sept can be quite mixed. It can be fine and dry. Temps may go up to 20c but nights are quite cool. As the children go back to school in Sept we are sure to have some fine weather. Sept can be lovely. You could be sitting on the beach or dodging the showers!! But on the plus side they dont last long.
However it has been dull and cool for the most part this summer. A warm fleece is essential. It can be windy. Always have a raincoat with a hood. Waterproof shoes for outdoors. Light fleece, long sleeve t shirts, light trousers. We spend lots of time outdoors.
I make sure the kids go out to play or plan a trip while it is dry. Make the most of the fine weather to see the beautiful country and amazing coastal landscapes. It will be windy by the coast. If the day is wet we plan indoor visits. It's always lovely to have a walk or a trip to a playground in the fresh air.
It appears to be a badly spelt interpretation of Hibernia...thats the roman name for Ireland, which means wintry, because the romans thought it was a squalid, cold, wet and harsh land. A lot of Irish things are named after this
