United Ireland
A United Ireland is the idea of a sovereign state covering all of the thirty-two traditional counties of Ireland. The island of Ireland includes the territory of two independent sovereign states: the Republic of Ireland, which covers 26 counties of the island, and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, which covers 6 counties. A united Ireland, fully independent of the United Kingdom, is supported by Irish republicans and Irish nationalists. Conversely, unionists and loyalists oppose this and support Northern Ireland remaining part of the United Kingdom, and even the Republic joining them. In the 2009 Northern Ireland Life and Times survey, 21% of those asked supported a united Ireland. In the Republic of Ireland, a united Ireland was favoured by around 80% of people in 2006. In Great Britain surveys show about 40% support a united Ireland, and 32% supporting the idea Northern Ireland should remain part of the United Kingdom. Several different models for reunification have been suggested, including, a system of government akin to the Swiss Federalism, a confederalism, and a unitary state. Article 15.2 of the Constitution of Ireland provides for the possibility of devolution within the Irish state, originally intended to absorb the old Stormont institutions of Northern Ireland. In 1999 the related Articles 2 and 3 of the constitution were amended to abandon the territorial claim on the Northeast.
