Truce and Treaty negotiations conclude; Free State framework agreed

The Truce and Treaty Negotiations

In 1921, a truce was declared between the British forces and the IRA, marking the end of the War of Independence. This paved the way for negotiations between the British government and representatives of the Irish Republic.

The Free State Framework

The negotiations resulted in the Anglo-Irish Treaty, which provided for the establishment of the Irish Free State, a self-governing dominion within the British Empire. The Treaty was a significant milestone in Irish history, marking the end of British rule in most of Ireland.
