I don't think so.

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland was the formal name of the United Kingdom from 1 January 1801 until 12 April 1927. It was formed by the merger of the Kingdom of Great Britain (itself having been a merger of the Kingdoms of England and Scotland) and the Kingdom of Ireland.
Following Irish independence on 6 December 1922, when the 1921 Anglo-Irish Treaty came into effect, the name continued in official use until it was changed to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland by the Royal and Parliamentary Titles Act of 1927. That part of the island of Ireland which seceded from the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland in 1922 today constitutes the Republic of Ireland.

When - that is the mystery.
Why not?
It was successful with those survivors of "Star on 45" with their children in "Area 51 and Shelter 51" from after world war two.
Ever wonder what is the mystery of a United Kingdom?

Orla c afraid your wrong there the Republic is part of the British Isles, all the Islands around Ireland and the UK is called the British Isles, nothing political that's just the name of all the Islands together

Being united has saved our island from being conquered these past 100+ years.
If we were'nt united then the Nazis would have gotten a landing and invaded.
The Irish (who are not united with us of) even used to leave their lights on at night so the Nazis knew where Dublin was and then swung back on the correct heading and bombed London.

Certainly not. I'm from the Republic of Ireland, which hasn't been part of Britain since 1921.

Stupid boy has got it wrong.
Whether united or not, Britain would have been powerless against a German invasion.
Hitler simply got cold feet and turned his attention to Russia instead, thinking he could mop up up the UK later.
Meanwhile, the Americans kept Britain going.
