Ireland

The whole of island of Ireland was part of the United Kingdom from the Act of Union in 1800 until Irish independence in 1922. Following the Anglo-Irish Treaty, Ireland seceded from the UK to become the Irish Free State but a day later 6 northern counties seceded from the Free State and rejoined the UK as the province of Northern Ireland. In 1937 a new Constition of Ireland re-established the state as Ireland (Éire in Irish). In 1949 Ireland was declared a republic and left the British Commonwealth.

For the purposes of this site and genealogy, I have used Ireland to refer to the geographical entity and in general, and Republic of Ireland (RoI) or Northern Ireland (NI) when explicitly referring to post-1922 political entities.

For a illustration of how Ireland fits into the Geographical and Political structure of the British Isles I suggest the Wikipedia Euler Diagram.
