Easter Rising of 1916 is the most important event in the history of Irish independence movement. Ireland was ruled by Britain from the 12th century, and declared independence on the occasion of Easter Rising. And they declared independence on January 21, 1919, started the war, and won independence on December 6, 1921. Korea and Ireland have many similarities. Both countries experienced colonial rule of an empire with geographically close and overwhelming military power, and fought for independence against them.
The history of Ireland shows the history of Korea. In the past, the Queen of England reached out to Ireland, expressing regret over the past history of both countries. The Irish president emphasized mutual affection and respect in his speech in the British Parliament. Looking at the relationship between the two countries, we look forward to the harmony and new start of Korea and Japan.
