I can remember drinking in a bar in Belfast and a staunch Republican kept on referring to us (well me anyway) as a Free Stater. Some of them believe we sold out by agreeing to the Treaty. Some of them believe that Sinn Fein have sold out signing the Good Friday Agreement.It is colloquially known as the free state, especially by catholics from the north.
Yep and it was Romans that called it the British Isles. It's mainly used now by people who like to be political. People prefer to call them the UK and Ireland.The second biggest island in the British Isles iirc.
