A deep division in Irish society opened up on #ThisDayInHistory in 1922, when the #DáilÉireann ratified the #AngloIrishTreaty by 64–57. The #IrishCivilWar that began in June was launched by the opposing faction. Ireland's three main political parties descend from these factions.
#ThisDayInHistory holds two related anniversaries. In 1921, the #AngloIrishTreaty was signed, ending the #IrishWarOfIndependence. And in 1922, #IrishFreeState and #NorthernIreland came into existence. #Ireland later rejected Commonwealth & became a republic; NI is still occupied.
