Michael Collins

Michael Collins doesn't die

in the dying days of the Irish Civil War Michael Collins was in the last Republican Strong hold in west Cork, when he was ambushed by IRA troopers and he was killed on 22 August 1922, shortly there after the Civil War ended. but what if Collins hadn't died on that road in Cork? how would that change early Irish-Anglo Relations? would Collins use his IRA to attack the British in Northern Ireland? (Collins' assassination of Henry Hughes Wilson set off the Civil War)

Well Collins was supposedly supplying IRA elements in Northern Ireland, however their efforts were quite piss poor. The Catholics were taking a disproportionate amount of casualties in the fighting, and for the most part everyone wanted the fighting to end (save for the hardcore republican Army types)

Dont expect he unification of Ireland, but dont expect a friendly Ireland to GB. Dis spite what others would have you believe Collins had no love for the English and had he had the resources would have continued the war until judgment day.
