the united nations in 1955 it joined the european communities ec the predecessor of the european union eu in 1973 the state had no formal relations with northern ireland for most of the 20th century but the 1980s and 1990s saw the british and irish governments working with northern irish parties to resolve the conflict that had become known as the troubles since the signing of the good friday agreement in 1998 the irish government and northern irish government have co operated on a number of policy areas under the north south ministerial council created by the agreement ireland is a developed country with a quality of life ranked sixth in the world by the 2024 human development index report adjusted for inequality 10 it also ranks highly in healthcare economic freedom and freedom of the press 11 12 according to the global peace index ireland was the second most peaceful country worldwide in 2024 13 it is a member of the eu and a founding member of the council of europe and the oecd the irish government has followed a policy of military neutrality through non alignment since before world war ii and the country is consequently not a member of nato 14 although it is a member of the partnership for peace and certain aspects of pesco ireland s economy is advanced 15 with one of europe s major financial hubs being centred on dublin it ranks among the top five wealthiest countries in the world in terms of both gdp and gni per capita 16 17 18 19 after joining the ec the country s government enacted a series of liberal economic policies that helped to boost economic growth between 1995 and 2007 a time now often referred to as the celtic tiger period a recession and reversal in growth then followed during the great recession which was exacerbated by the bursting of the irish property bubble 20 the great recession lasted until 2014 and was followed by a new period of strong economic growth 21 name main article names of the irish state the names ireland and éire both derive from old irish ériu which in turn comes from proto celtic ɸīweriyū meaning fertile soil the classical latin name for the island of ireland ivernia also comes from this same root 22 23 and it remains a popular poetic synonym for ireland to this day usually respelled hibernia under the influence of hibernum the latin word for winter the state created in 1922 comprising 26 of the 32 counties of ireland was styled and known as the irish free state saorstát éireann 24 the constitution of ireland adopted in 1937 says that the name of the state is éire or in the english language ireland section 2 of the republic of ireland act 1948 states it is hereby declared that the description of the state shall be the republic of ireland the 1948 act does not name the state republic of ireland because to have done so would have put it in conflict with the constitution 25 the government of the united kingdom used the name eire without the diacritic and from 1949 republic of ireland for the state 26 it was not until the 1998 good friday agreement when the state dropped its claim to northern ireland that it began calling the state ireland 27 28 the state is also informally called the republic southern ireland or the south 29 especially when distinguishing the state from the island or when discussing northern ireland the north irish republicans reserve the name ireland for the whole island 28 and often refer to the state as the free state the 26 counties 28 30 or the south of ireland 31 this is a response to the partitionist view that ireland stops at the border 32 history main article history of the republic of ireland for the history of the entire island see history of ireland home rule movement main article irish home rule movement charles stewart parnell 1846 1891 addressing a meeting the irish parliamentary party was formed in 1882 by parnell from the act of union on 1 january 1801 until 6 december 1922 the island of ireland was part of the united kingdom of great britain and ireland during the great famine from 1845 to 1849 the island s population of over 8 million fell by 30 one million irish died of starvation and disease and another 1 5 million emigrated mostly to the united states 33 this set the pattern of emigration for the century to come resulting in constant population decline up to the 1960s 34 35 36 from 1874 and particularly under charles stewart parnell from 1880 the irish parliamentary party gained prominence this was firstly through widespread agrarian agitation via the irish land league which won land reforms for tenants in the form of the irish land acts and secondly through its attempts to achieve home rule via two unsuccessful bills which would have granted ireland limited national autonomy these led to grass roots control of national affairs under the local government act 1898 that had been in the hands of landlord dominated grand juries of the protestant ascendancy home rule seemed certain when the parliament act 1911 abolished the veto of the house of lords and john redmond secured the third home rule act in 1914 however the unionist movement had been growing since 1886 among irish protestants after the introduction of the first home rule bill fearing discrimination and loss of economic and social privileges if irish catholics achieved real political power during the late 19th and early 20th centuries unionism was particularly strong in parts of ulster where industrialisation was more common in contrast to the more agrarian rest of the island and where the protestant population was more prominent with a majority in four counties 37 under the leadership of the dublin born sir edward carson of the irish unionist party and the ulsterman sir james craig of the ulster unionist party unionists became strongly militant forming ulster volunteers in order to oppose the coercion of ulster 38 after the home rule bill passed parliament in may 1914 to avoid rebellion with ulster the british prime minister h h asquith introduced an amending bill reluctantly conceded to by the irish party leadership this provided for the temporary exclusion of ulster from the workings of the bill for a trial period of six years with an as yet undecided new set of measures to be introduced for the area to be temporarily excluded revolution and steps to independence damage in dublin city centre following the 1916 easter rising though it received the royal assent and was placed on the statute books in 1914 the implementation of the third home rule act was suspended until after the first world war which defused the threat of civil war in ireland with the hope of ensuring the implementation of the act at the end of the war through ireland s engagement in the war redmond and the irish national volunteers supported the uk and its allies 175 000 men joined irish regiments of the 10th irish and 16th irish divisions of the new british army while unionists joined the 36th ulster divisions 39 the remainder of the irish volunteers who refused redmond and opposed any support of the uk launched an armed insurrection against british rule in the 1916 easter rising together with the irish citizen army and other militant irish nationalist groups this commenced on 24 april 1916 with the proclamation of the republic after a week of heavy fighting primarily in dublin the surviving rebels were forced to surrender their positions the majority were imprisoned with fifteen of the prisoners including most of the leaders and all of the proclamation signatories executed for taking part in armed rebellion and waging war against the british crown court martialed under the defence of the realm act this included patrick pearse the commander in chief of the irish rebel forces and james connolly socialist and founder of the industrial workers of the world union and both the irish and scottish labour movements the rising and the executions and arrests together with the conscription crisis of 1918 had the effect of changing public opinion in ireland against the british government 40 in january 1919 after the december 1918 general election 73 of ireland s 105 members
