A compromise for Unionists and Nationalists was reached, The Government of Ireland Act, which had three main terms: The nine counties of Ulster were split off, and six became a self governing Northern Ireland, this was a mainly Protestant section of Ireland, as two thirds of the population were Unionist. The 26 remaining counties also became a self-governed state - Eire, or the Republic of Ireland. Britain remained completely in control of the military and the naval facilities among some other things.
