One of Eamon DeValera's top civil servants once suggested that Ireland start a colony in Africa. Now this may be in the realm of ASB but I thought I'd pose the questions here:
1) Could this have even happened or would it only ever go as far as debate as in OTL?
2) If it did happen, where in Africa could the colony even be set up given that the vast majority of Africa at the time was already under European rule?
I've looked for this one before on the site and can't find it so forgive me if its already been asked.
