* When using the term ‘Britain’ I am not referring to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland; I am merely referring to the Island of Great Britain, which includes England, Scotland and Wales. In contrast with Britain, Ireland had a growing Republican movement during the reign of Her Majesty Queen Victoria. This was mainly due to Nationalistic sentiments which were the result of years of mistreatment to Ireland’s Catholic population by the pro-English Protestant minority.
