The Irish independence struggle links an initially failed insurrection to later electoral legitimacy, parallel political institutions, guerrilla conflict, negotiation, partition, and state formation. It is useful for separating symbolic rebellion from the later institutional and electoral processes that made sovereignty claims durable. This profile treats organization, coercion, repression, legitimacy, state response, and outcome as historical variables—not moral shorthand.

Coverage class: Insurrection · political mobilization · guerrilla war · electoral legitimacy. BuiltToResist does not use violent/nonviolent, armed/unarmed, extremist, insurgent, or legal designation as a credibility or inclusion test. Those fields describe what actors did and how authorities classified them; they do not decide whether the case belongs in the research corpus.
This profile is synthesized from the 2026 Revolutionary Knowledge expansion corpus. Campaign-cycle descriptions are historical research snapshots, not recruitment or tactical guidance. Current legal or political status should be reverified before present-tense reuse.
