Post Body

Ireland stands at the dawn of a new age. This very year, 1949, stands as the year of the Declaration of the Republic of Ireland, officially dissolving all previous posts and positions which were still statutorily by the British.

Positioned uniquely among European powers, Ireland has emerged from the Second World War largely unscathed. However, she is also precariously balanced. Low public spending and protectionism - while helpful in mitigating collateral caused by her wearing neighbors - spell troubles in the coming years as growth begins to halt.

Politically, Ireland has just undergone a stunning change. Fianna Fail, having led the nation since 1932 under Eamon de Valera, lost their majority in the 1948 election, leading to the formation of a tenuous, politically-diverse government under Taoiseach John Costello of Fine Gael.

The Irish horizon remains bright, albeit complicated by a myriad of issues: cultivating long-term growth, expanding Ireland's foreign relations, and of course - Northern Ireland. My own plans for Ireland lie in the formulation of a strong national economy with a historic bent (oriented around a mixture of foreign investment invitation and the nurturing of a competitive domestic economy), the expansion of Irish democracy and social welfare services, and of course the issue of Irish Unification and Ireland's place in Europe.

Excited to get back onto the Powers scene!
