[QUOTE="nivilla1982, post: 5865150, member: 45400"] In 1949, the then Irish Free State (26 counties) under the terms of Republic of Ireland Act 1948 declared itself a Republic, ending its a rather tenuous membership of the Commonwealth and removing the role of the King as head of the Irish Free State, thus making the Irish President the unambiguous head of state, While still retaining the name Ireland/Eire. The proposal to rename Northern Ireland as Ulster and thus making the formal title of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ulster. Partly as a means of further differentiating here from the rest of the island. It was expected that the UK's own Ireland Act 1949 would contain the formal measures for a name change, in the end the Act did not contain anything to do with a name change. The Act however did contain provisions that partition would continue (thus the existence of Northern Ireland) as long as the Government of Northern Ireland wished it to. [/QUOTE]
