RTE - First World War

On the 100th anniversary of the start of World War One, RTE looks at the Great War from Ireland's perspective. 

Under six main headings, including, 'The Great War', 'Seeing Action', 'In The Trenches', 'Casualties of War', 'The Easter Rising' and 'The Aftermath', this dedicated site contains information and resources on how Ireland was involved in the First World War. 

Including first hand accounts from those who took part in action overseas and their motivations for joining up, the site contains a host of personal insights into a difficult period in Irish history.
