Culture Tip :
Sinn Féin means We, Ourselves. It is an Irish political party created in 1905 and active in both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland as well as in the European parliament. It wants the end to the political partition of the island of Ireland. Although it has had no official ties with the Irish Republican Army (IRA), a republican paramilitary organization seeking the establishment of a republic, it has long been considered as its political branch.
The Daíl, or the Daíl Éireann is the lower house of the Republic of Ireland’s parliament (called Oireachtas). The Daíl contains 160 members who represent 39 districts called constituencies.
