ORIGINS FACT VS. MYTH

The year was 1923 and the Irish Civil War is in full force.

MYTH: It is written in the history books that the war ended on May 24, 1923 after the Anglo-Irish Treaty was signed. The war was between the forces of the Free State and their counterparts known as the Irish Republic. The civil war is believed to have claimed more than 3000 Irish Soldiers lives which is more lives than were lost during Irelands independence from Great Britain. The country was divided and many can still see this division in Ireland today.

FACT: Ireland was once actually two countries, Igrius and Ealugland. These two countries went to war because the princess from Ealugland and the Prince of Igrius had a baby. Both countries claimed the baby would be their next king and neither country wanted to join the other. This caused the outbreak of war in 1921 and by 1923 all signs pointed to Ealugland winning this war. Then on May 24, 1923 two men walked into the castle of Ealugland and approached the king. The men were towering figures and fear instantly flowed through the King. He noticed that one of these mens eyes stayed closed and this puzzled the king as he finally got the courage to ask, "Who are you and what are you doing here?" One of the men replied, "I am TheSpare15 and this is NumeroDos and we are here to end this war!" The King began to laugh, "This war is all but over, we have won, Igrius does not have a chance to beat us now." With that TheSpare15 raised his hand and the Kings laughing head fell from his body and to the ground, he was dead. The crowd in the room looked on stunned and scared as he turned to them and claimed, "Now this war is all but won." And with that he looked over at his partner and NumeroDos opened his eyes, all the people, the land, and everything that made up the country Ealugland disappeared forever.

At this time two men walked into the castle of Igrius and one of these men stated, "I am Tytime and your war is over, Ealugland is dead." All the people in the castle began to rejoice and cry with tears of happiness. The King of Igrius approached the men and said, "I prayed that we would be saved and win this war and you have answered my prayers." With that the second man said, "Entonces usted debe haber rezado a la persona equivocada, porque ya es hora de que mueras!" The King looked at this man puzzled and turned to Tytime and asked, "What did he say?" Tytime responded, "He said that you must have prayed to the wrong person, because it is time for you to die!" The King scoffed, "Who does he think he is..." the man turned to the crownd and glared at them when suddenly a lightning bolt came from nowhere, expecially confusing since they were inside, and killed everyone in the room except for the two men and the king. With that the man turned to the king and said, "Soy un Numero Uno!"...."I AM NUMERO UNO" and with that the two men disappeared, leaving the king with no followers, no foes, no one but himself.

That night the King had a dream and in that dream a small stout figure appeared and began to talk to the King. He told the King to start a new country, the country of Ireland and to never speak of the events that took place and instead make up a story about an Irish Civil War. The King asked the man, "Why would I not tell anyone the truth, and why would I call my new country Ireland?" The man in the dream simply replied, "Because, I F$*ck#%g told you too!" And with that the dream was over. The King never understood but for some reason he complied, he never told anyone the truth and he started a new country, Ireland. And for the rest of his life he always wondered, who was this man in his dream, the man with the read beard...but he never knew.

And that is truth about the Irish Civil War. Historians and Scholars will tell you about the war that divided a country forever but that is not the truth...THAT IS NOT FACT!!! FACT IS...IT WAS P.O.D.
