Based on an idea in This Thread.

A less heavy handed approach to the aftermath of the Easter Rising in 1916, specifically following the letter of the law in conducting the trials/courts martial. IOTL the proceedings were in secret, without any defence, and there were officers on the panel who were directly involved in the events themselves,
a conflict of interest that was explicitly forbidden under military law.

Here, none of this happens, there are more acquittals, fewer executions, and the
fallout re: public opinion is mitigated.

The Ulster Covenant has already happened, so I suspect the whole of Ireland is still
in for some tough times after WWI.

How does a less bloody, less overbearing policy after the uprising affect things during
and after WWI?
