One way to unite the country
This appeared on del.icio.us' "popular" page a few days back: http://history.sandiego.edu/gen/maps/1900s/1942world4000.jpg which is a proposed remaking of the world after the Second World War - obviously drawn up during that conflict, and by someone with a very idealistic view of things. The main reason I'm linking this, though, is because of item 25 in the list:25. The areas known as Eire and Northern Ireland shall be unified as a demilitarised independent republic of "Eire"
It seems odd, given that so many other places (like the assorted Pacific and Atlantic islands, for example) are assigned to the role of "USA Peace-Security Outposts" and yet our own little sod is given complete autonomy.
