Ireland became self-governing in 1922 when it gained independence from British rule and established the Irish Free State through the Anglo-Irish Treaty. This marked the end of British dominion over most of Ireland and the beginning of Irish self-governance.
Michael Collins helped established an Irish Free state by negotiating the Anglo-Irish Treaty in 1921 which was ratified in Ireland by 1922. He was Commander-in-Chief in the Free-State Army. Died on August 22, 1922 by a group of Anti-Treaty IRA. His biggest impact is creating a Free Ireland, but he also organized the Original Irish Republican Army during the Irish War of Independence.

It was officially recognized as the national flag of the Irish Free State in 1922 and continued to be the flag of the Republic of Ireland when it was declared in 1949. The flag symbolizes peace between the green (representing the Irish nationalists), the white (representing peace), and the orange (representing the Irish unionists).
