Little known fact of history.
Today makes the 100th anniversary of the final handover of power and control of Ireland from the United Kingdom, to the then new Irish Free State. Ireland is - at least in its current state - a hundred years old today.
It would be another 37 years and a minor Emergency before the Republic was declared but, for the first time in centuries, Ireland governed itself.

Oh sweet meteor of death
Fall upon us.
Deliver us in fire
To Peace everlasting.
