United Irishmen, Society of
The Society of United Irishmen (Irish: Cumann na nÉireannach Aontaithe) is founded as a liberal political organization in eighteenth century Ireland that seeks Parliamentary reform.
However, it evolves into a revolutionary republican organization, inspired by the American Revolution and allied with Revolutionary France.
It launches the Irish Rebellion of 1798 with the objective of ending British monarchical rule over Ireland and founding an independent Irish republic.
