In 1932, Eamon de Valera, the political leader of the forces initially opposed to the treaty, became Prime Minister, and a new Irish constitution was enacted in 1937. The last British military bases were soon withdrawn, and the ports were returned to Irish control. Ireland was neutral in World War II. The government formally declared Ireland a republic in 1948; however, it does not normally use the term "Republic of Ireland," which tacitly acknowledges the partition, but refers to the country simply as "Ireland."
==Alcoholism==
Due to the newfound tolerance of [[homosexuality]] and [[pro-abortion]], the already notable rates of alcoholism have skyrocketed. Many political experts have made connections between the moral failings of Irish society and opposition to the Bible<ref>New International Version, (Numbers 6:3) </ref>. Alcoholism rates have increased by 31% in just three years following the referendum for same sex marriage, leading political experts to suspect that this had lead to societal disruption. Contrary to popular belief, alcoholism was not always a widespread part of Irish society, and instead has its historical roots with the mismanagement of Ireland in 1932 under the centre-left Fianna Fáil party, although it has never reached modern heights until very recent times.<ref>Blocker, Jack; Fahey, David; Tyrrell, Ian (2018).
