Talk:Gaelic Union

Aondacht na Gaeilge, or the Gaelic Union, predates the Gaelic League. The Society for the Preservation of the Irish Language was founded in 1876, the Gaelic Union was founded as a result of a slit in this movement, the Gaelic Union. The Gaeilge Union achieved some notable success including ensuring that Irish was placed on the syllabus, and the founding of the first irish magazine in Irelan "Irisleabhar na Gaedhilge", one of the members was Douglas Hyde who later founded the Gaelic League, who felt that the Gaelic Union didnt concentrate on the living language.

To redirect to the Gaelic League is like redirecting the Fenian Brotherhood to the IRA, they are different, distinct organisations...
