Talk:Republic of Connacht

Removed...
"Its borders changed rapidly before eventual defeat. Most of today's Connacht was under its realm at its height." It had no borders, and a republic is the opposite of a realm. The republic was proclaimed but had no reality.Red Hurley (talk) 22:44, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Misleading
Is this subject really appropriate for an article? A region that was the focus for a 12-day rebellion over 210 years ago and never before and never again does not fall into the category of Former Countries: it was proclaimed but never had any institutions and survived about the length of time it takes to paint a house. It would be more sensible to incorporate the whole article into Connaught.--Mevagiss (talk) 11:59, 10 May 2014 (UTC)
