Facts about the Easter rising.

The picture to the right is the flag that was used during the Easter Rising.

The planning for the Easter Rising lasted two years.

The IRB (Irish Republican Brotherhood) was a secret organisation that planned the Rising.

Patrick Pearse was the director of the military organisation IRB.

The reason for the Rising was that Ireland wanted to be a Republic.Slide4

Facts about Ireland at the time

Ireland were under British rule at the time of the Easter Rising.

World War 1 was also on at the time.

At the time there was no fighting going on in Ireland and the Irish people didn’t want to fight but that all changed in 1858 when the IRB was founded.

The IRB wanted to make Ireland a Republic unlike other organisations they wanted to use forceSlide5

The Irish Republican Brotherhood (IRB)

The IRB was founded in 1858.

The key leaders were Pádraig Pearse, Tom Clarke, Joseph Plunkett, Eamonn Ceannt and Seán MacDiarmada.

The IRB wanted to make Ireland a Republic unlike other organisations at the time they were willing to use force.

The IRB was a secret organisation.

The Forged letter

During the Easter Rising the IRB sent a forged letter to the Irish Volunteers army to tell them that their party was

now

illegal and Eoin

McNeill was to

be arrested. Eoin

McNeill

didn’t like this so he decided to join the

Rising.

I

n

the end Eoin found out that the letter was forged so he ordered the citizen army not to join the rising but some soldiers stayed and fought in the rising.

Michael Collins

Collins was born in Clonakilty, County Cork. 

H

e

joined the Gaelic League and the Irish Republican Brotherhood (IRB

).

Roger casement

For years the IRB had been receiving money from American supporters who wished to Ireland to secure

its

independence . The IRB decided to spend this money to buy guns for the Rising . One of their supporters, Rodger Casement, was sent to Germany to buy arms.

The Germans agreed to send a shipload of guns and ammunition to Ireland. The military council decided that the Rising would take place on Easter Sunday 1916. By that time, they hoped that the German ship, The Aud, which was carrying their arms, would have arrived off the coast of Kerry.

The Aud

The Aud brought guns from Germany to the coast of Kerry before the Easter Rising but just as they were approaching Ireland they were caught by the British and sunk, the Irish were outraged and this made them angry.Slide12

The aftermathWhen all soldiers were in their positions (GPO

Stephen’s Green etc.)

they ran out of ammunition so Padraig Pearse issued a surrender and the leaders were marched through the street and people threw tomatoes at them but all of them didn’t know that it helped greatly. Nearly

all

the leaders were executed but Éamonn de Valera because of his American birth. He later went on and became the president of

Ireland.Slide14
