The Federal Anarcho Republic's of Ireland (FARI) (Irish: Poblacht Chónaidhme Anarcho na hÉireann), also known as FAR Ireland, was a country in north-western Europe occupying 26 of 32 counties of the island of Ireland. The capital was Dublin with the largest city being Belfast, with the former, which is located on the eastern side of the island. Around 40% of the country's population of 4.9 million people resides in the greater Dublin area. It is otherwise surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, with the Celtic Sea to the south, St George's Channel to the south-east, and the Irish Sea to the east. It was a Federal Anarcho-Collectivist One-Party Republic. The Legislature was the Federal Irish Anarcho Commune (Irish: Cónaidhme Éireannach Anarcho Commune, CEAC), which was consisting of the lower house known as the Proletariat Commune and the Premier Commune of the upper house. The head of government was the People's Speaker (Irish: Cainteoir an Phobail, also meaning Speaker of the People) who is elected by the CEAC and chosen by the masses.
The Country was divided into two Anarcho Republics: The Anarcho Republic of Ireland, and the Anarcho Republic of Ulster. The worked together to run the Federal Republic, unlike Yugoslavia they don't have multi-ethnic issues, however the N and S are split along religious, and language differences.
The state was created as the Irish Free State in 1922 as a result of the Anglo-Irish Treaty. It became an Anarchist Commune and the only one in the world with the victory of the disorganized but effective Anarchist militia against the Irish National Army and Irish Republican Army during the civil war. It remained neutral during WW2, despite being close to the Soviet Union and supporting Ho Chi Minh in Vietnam and Mao Zaedong and the Chinese Communist. Due the West considering it too close to communism, and the Eastern Bloc and its neutrality and a thaw in relations with the Soviet Union after Stalin's death it wasn't allowed to join the UN, until 1960 with support of Yugoslavia, China, Vietnam, and Albania.
Despite not being technically communist, and practicing State Capitalism, it was heavily affected in the late 90's due to the collapse of communism and the loss of its primary trade partner Yugoslavia with the Yugoslavia wars (1991 – 2001), this coupled with demands for democratic reforms (mostly in the south), lead to its collapse in 1998, which also coupled with the Troubles (1998 - 2000; 2000 - 2010) a series of political, religious, and social-economic upheavals mostly in Ulster and the border regions. It is to be noted unlike Communism Anarchoism suffered mostly from internal issues rather than external issues, due to its insistence on a an Isolationist and self-sufficient economy policy which translates to foreign affairs, though it was compounded by the fact James Larkin wanted Ireland to still be open to the outside world, which made external issues more likely to affect internal issues.

Religious Policy []
State Atheism []
State Atheism was enforced from 1945 to the late 80's/early 90's, this was mostly due to James Larkin who was voted in as the Speaker of the People from his election in 1937 till his death in 1945, his successor's continued the policy it was only done for two reasons.
- To end religious violence and persecution in the North.
- To maintain friendly relations with the Soviet Union* (*Later to maintain friendly relations with the Eastern Bloc)
However, in the late 80's and early 90's, this policy ended, mostly due to a thawing of relations between the Soviet Union and Ireland since Stalin's death in 1953, and the rise of his successor Nikita Khrushchev, and the slowly increasing of relation's* (* at the personally behest of Tito) with Western Nation's primary the United States, France and Germany. Ironically N.Korea protested the decision of Speaker of the People (1983 - 1990; 1990 - 1992) Jimmy Stewart, who announced a slow end to the State enforced Atheism, this was due to how long it was in affect* and also due to unsure questions about the religious violence and persecution between Catholics and Protestants. (*1940 - 1989/199; 51 years, 1 day/49 years, 1 day).
No State Religion []
In the 90's after the final end of State atheism and the collapse of communism which affected Ireland economically, and demands for social and democratic change within Ireland, and the outset of the Yugoslav wars which hurt Ireland economically as Yugoslavia was Ireland's biggest trade partner. Ireland announced that it will not enforce nor support Roman Catholicism and Protestantism as an official/state Religion. Ireland instead encouraged all religions including minor ones such as Islam, Judaism, and alternate forms of Christianity. Ireland also reached out and personally dealt with allegations of persecution during James Larkin and O'Brien's tenure as Speakers. Particular the Jehovah's Witness and Jewish Orthodox branches, which both were located in Northern Ireland.
Economy[]
Economic Policy []
Collectivism (1937 - 1940)[]
James Larkin, following in the footsteps of Vladimir Lenin, ordered Collectivism, unlike the Soviets however the Irish had more success due to smaller farms, and a smaller population. Ireland built only two state farms, the Dublin State Farm, and Cork State Ranches, they instead encouraged smaller farmers and worked with them, hiring them on as consulates and directors and to train migrants and unemployed workers from the city, which helped to reduce unemployment and overcrowding in larger Irish cities such as Belfast, and Dublin.
Planned Economy (1940 - 1953)[]
Ireland later adopted a modified version of Planned Economy, in an effort to grow closer with the Soviet Union especially with the Battle of Britain and discovery by Russian-British agents of Operation Green and Sea Lion by the Germans. With Stalin's death in 1953, and Larkin's death in 1945, William X O'Brien announced that Ireland will practice State Capitalism, in order to fund his military, education, and economic reforms.
State Capitalism/Autarky (1953 - 1998)[]
Under O'Brien, Ireland moved away from Planned Economy and and Collectivism, and switched to a combination of State Capitalism and Autarky, which focused on most major industries such as Farming, Mining, Oil, and later Tourism as state controlled with private assets to be supported and work with the larger state industries and for Ireland to self-reliant and self-sufficient. This was done, due to thawing relations with the Soviet Union after Stalin and Larkins death* (*1935; 1945 respectively). It was successful up until the economy collapse in 90's, the loss of Yugoslavia and Albania as a trade partner, and the end of communism, as well as poor economic decisions of the tenure of Jimmy Stewart (1990 -1992) and involvement of the Irish Anarcho Militia by Martha O'Neil in various Baltic conflicts such as the Ten-day war and the War in Abkhazia most if not all were costly this coupled with poor economic development and growth and a sharp decline during Stewart's second tenure as Speaker. Along with Ireland's policy on state religion, Ireland officially and formally ended State Capitalism and Autarky as part of the economic/social reforms, this also lead in part to the The Troubles, due to Ulster industry and shipbuilding suffering from military cutbacks to Naval spending in wake of economic collapse.

The Armed forces, of the Federal Anarcho Republic of Ireland, was organized similar to Yugoslavia consisting of the Irish Anarcho Milita (Mílíste Anarcho na hÉireann, MAE), Irish Anarcho Commune Guard (Garda Anarcho Commune na hÉireann, GACE), Irish Anarcho Citizen Defense (Cosaint Saoránach Anarcho na hÉireann. CSAE), and the Irish Anarcho Security Corps (Cór Slándála Anarcho na hÉireann, CSAE). Unlike Yugoslavia Post-War and like Tito's Partisans the MAE was armed with at the time advanced Soviet weapons and tanks, and were granted the licenses to produced their own versions of the T-20, T-34, and BT-7 tanks, and infantry equipment, the Soviets also sold British and American lend-lease vehicles and aircraft and captured German tanks after the discovery by the NVKD of Operation Green which was a supposed Nazi Plan to invade Ireland to prevent the British from fleeing their in the event of a successful Operation Sea Lion. Later on, due to decline in relation's between Ireland and the
Irish version of the AK-47, PM-45 *PM stands for Piostail Meaisín or in English "Machine Pistol" or "Machine Pistols"
Soviet Union after Stalin's death, Ireland received weapons and equipment from China, and Yugoslavia, Yugoslavia vouched on Ireland's behalf to the West, France and West Germany had already sold weapons and equipment to Ireland, the US sold Bell UH-1 Iroquois,Hughes OH‑6 Cayuse,Bell AH‑1 Cobra , and Boeing CH-47 Chinook helicopters, as well as outdated tanks such M24 Chaffee's, and McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II Jet fighter-Interceptor and bombers. Ireland also followed in Yugoslavia footsteps and developed their own jet fighters and equipment. MAE had been deployed to Vietnam, initially to aid the Vietnamese against the Japanese and later the French, later MAE troops, and Special Operations Forces were sent to work with the National Liberation Front in the south while members of MAE's 66th Airborne Army was deployed to aid the NVA in the north. Later they fought alongside the Vietnamese against the Chinese during the Third Indochina war (Feb 17, 1979 – Mar 16, 1979).

National Anthem/ Political Songs.[]
Ironically Yugoslavia and Ireland, share a similar melody in their national anthems which makes sense as Pan-Slavic is similar to Pan-Celtic movement. Ireland also borrowed melody used in other Yugoslavian songs for their anthems such as "With Big Jim" (Le Jim Mór) being described as similar melody wise to "With Marshal Tito" (Uz Maršala Tita), with rewrites from its original purpose of being a funeral song it was written with collaboration between Vladimir Nazor, Oskar Danon, and Irish socialist musician Dominic Behan.
