Which countries are Ireland's enemy?
Ireland is Neutral
In the past, their was a series of public outcries, following small conflicts. The Easter day rising was a start of a revolution against the British. In 1921, signed a treaty in which Ireland became a free-state, a dominion of the British empire. allot of Irish did not like this, so they had a very, very, bloody civil war. This lead to the republic of Ireland which maintained a neutral basis in the terms of military. And no longer part of the British empire.
Ironicaly: enemies are the British, and its self (jkjk), in terms, America is quote an "ally" according to the US- Ireland Alliance , which mean Irish are one of the biggest contributors to the US, and an ally, so if Ireland gets attacked by, i don't know, the British (never will happen), the US. would help Ireland. but Ireland will not fight a war such as Iraq.
Britain is no longer an enemy of Ireland, but if your Irish, you probably hate Britain, and north Ireland used tried to revolt true, as Ireland always wanted north Ireland to join the republic.

Do you need a passport to travel from dublin to the UK?
As the asker of this question did not state his or her nationality the best advice anyone should give is to check with the Immigration Control authorities of both the Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom at least a week BEFORE the day you plan to travel between London and Dublin. If you are a citizen of the United Kingdom you don't strictly need a valid passport to travel between the UK and Ireland. It's likely, though, that your airline or sea ferry service will require you to produce some other form of photographic id. If you are a citizen of any other country which is a Member State of the European Union it may or may not be essential to have a valid passport if you can produce some other form of photographic id which is acceptable to the Immigration Control authorities of both the Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom. However, as traveling without a valid passport may lead you to experience delays at Immigration Control when entering the Republic of Ireland and again when you re-enter the United Kingdom, it would be very sensible and wise of you to use a valid passport to travel between the UK and Ireland.
If you are a citizen of any country that is outside the European Union you will need to produce a valid passport and also - if you are a citizen of certain countries - a valid visa to enter the Republic of Ireland.
