Alternate Timelines

Scenarios about 'Irish independence'

Irish independence refers to Ireland's struggle to gain political sovereignty from British rule, culminating in the establishment of the Irish Free State in 1922 and later the Republic of Ireland. This movement encompassed centuries of resistance including the 1798 rebellion, the 1916 Easter Rising, and the subsequent War of Independence (1919-1921). Alternative history scenarios often explore different outcomes of these conflicts, earlier independence movements, or the potential reunification of Northern Ireland with the Republic.
