Irish nationalism - Roots.
Ireland has been subject to varying degrees of rule from England since the late 12th century. (See Norman Ireland). The Gaelic Irish resisted this conquest through military and other means, but were organised in small independent lordships and did not have a common political goal such as an independent Irish state. Conflict over the English presence was exacerbated by the Protestant Reformation in England, which introduced a religious element to the Tudor re-conquest of Ireland. Another central feature of future Anglo-Irish conflict was the continuing dispossession of Irish Catho ...

At various times both the Labour Party and the Liberal Party took up the cause of Welsh self-government, but it was with the establishment of Plaid Cymru (The party of Wales) in 1925 that Welsh separation from the UK was first advocated.
The election of a Labour Government in 1997 included a commitment to hold a referendum on the establishment of of a Welsh Assembly. The referendum was narrowly won, with support from Plaid Cymru, ...

Though many across the country were unhappy with the Anglo-Irish Treaty (since, during the Anglo-Irish war, the IRA had fought for independence for all Ireland and for a republic, not a partitioned dominion under the British crown), most republicans were satisfied that the Treaty was the best that could be achieved at the time.

Perhaps the end of the twentieth century saw the greatest achievement of a hundred and fifty years of Welsh nationalism with the establishment of the National Assembly for Wales in 1999.

| | | | Irish nationalism: Encyclopedia II - Welsh nationalism - Conquest Through most of its history before the English conquest, Wales was divided into several kingdoms. From time to time, rulers such as Howell the Good and Rhodri the Great managed to unify the country, but their lands were divided on their deaths. By 1282, only Gwynedd stood out, whose ruler was accorded the title Prince of Wales. Following the defeat of Llywelyn the Last by Edward I Wales lost its last independent kingdom and became subject to the English crown, either directly or indirectly. It retained some vestiges of distinction from its neighbour howev ...

Irish republicanism was born in the late eighteenth century. The republican revolutions in France and America during the late 18th century influenced radical Irish people, who wanted democratic reforms, more independence from Britain and an end to discrimination against Catholics. The United Irishmen were the first group to advocate an independent Irish republic. With military aid from the republican government in France, they organized the failed Irish Rebellion of 1798. Thereafter, repubicanism was to play a centra ...

| | | | Irish nationalism: Encyclopedia II - Welsh nationalism - Revolutionary ideas Along with the rest of Europe the effects of the French Revolution were felt in Wales. It brought to the forefront a small minority of Welsh people who sympathised with revolutionary ideas: people such as Richard Price (1723-1791), Iolo Morganwg (1747-1826), and Morgan John Rhys (1760-1804).
In the meantime, counter-revolutionary or even anti-revolutionary ideas flourished amongst the leaders of the Welsh Methodist revival, but the consequences of turning Wales into a nation with a nonco ...

| | | | Irish nationalism: Encyclopedia II - Welsh nationalism - Nineteenth century The rapid industrialisation of parts of Wales, especially Merthyr Tydfil and adjoining areas, gave rise to strong and radical Welsh working class movements which led to the Merthyr Rising of 1831, the widespread support for Chartism, and the Newport Rising of 1839.
With the establishment of the Calvinistic Methodist Church nonconformism triumphed in Wales, and gradually the previously majority of conservative voices within it allied themselves with the more radical and liberal voices within the older dissenting churches of the Baptist ...

| | | | Irish nationalism: Encyclopedia II - Welsh nationalism - Annexation Throughout the period of conquest the Welsh poets kept alive the dream of independence. In what was known as the Canu brud (= Prophetic poetry), the idea of the coming of a messiah-like figure, known as Y Mab Darogan (= The Son of Destiny), who would not only remove the English yoke but win back the whole of the island of Britain for the British (i.e. Welsh) people. In the Welsh-born Henry VII the Welsh believed that "The son of destiny" had come and there were no more revolts or talk of revolt – the people of Wales beca ...

Irish Republicanism - 1921 - 1966.
In 1921, Ireland was partitioned. Most of the country became part of the independent Irish Free State. However, six out of the nine counties of Ulster remained part of the United Kingdom as Northern Ireland. In the 1921 elections [[1]] in Northern Ireland,
Antrim, Down and the borough of Belfast had Unionist majorities of over 25%.
In County Londonderry, the breakdown in that election was 56.2% Unionist / 43.8% Nationalist.
In Armagh, the ratio was ...
