A great moment in the history of Ireland, which began its fight for independence from the United Kingdom, only unlike the failed attempts of the past, it was successful, putting the first nail in the coffin of the British Empire.
Where were the photos taken?

Man, talk about a cushy job. You don’t have to show up for work for 120 years and when you do finally have to work, you get to lay around on a couch.
