Northern Ireland never joined Great Britain. Great Britain is an island, and Northern Island is on a separate island. What you are referring to is the United Kingdom. It could be said to have joined it separately as Northern Ireland in 1921, because that is when Northern Ireland came into existence, or as part of Ireland in 1801 when the Act of Union of 1800 came into being.
