If Ireland “seemingly survived”, they surrendered more sovereignty to the EU than they lost to the UK under the 1801 Act of Union. Lots of under-the-table horse trading in that EU empire, and the full story isn’t out yet.

To get an understanding of the "Irish mentality" one would do well to research the origins of the city of Dublin.
Ireland had a brief upsurge in the late 1980s - thru the mid 1990s. Its all been downhill since then.
A terrible mess they're in now.

I hope Ireland can recover from their foolishness and learn to not have a large sovereign debt ever again.
