Article 1 The Nation
The nation of Éire hereby affirms its inalienable, invincible, sovereign right to establish whatever type of Government they themselves choose, to determine their relationship with other nations, and to promote their political and economic and learned life in accordance with the natural bent and practices of their ancestors.
Article 1 is the most important article in the constitution. As Irish nationals, we are the nation.
The State is not to be confused with the nation. The State is a juristic person capable of holding property (and is a corporation). It cannot be regarded as a government department. Anyone employed by, or acting for, the State are simply agents for the State, and they cannot claim ownership of the property of the State.
An Irish Citizen is different from an Irish national.
Citizenship as defined by the 1935 act and the 1956 act.
This 63-article Irish Constitution is the capacity in which we can do business.
There are 2 different types of "citizenship":
1. A citizen of Ireland is a commercial entity represented by our "legal" all-caps name and has no personal rights, only privileges in this capacity. It is a juristic person/resident.
2. A citizen of the State Éire is a human person represented by a given name (fore name) and does allow for personal rights enshrined in your fundamental personal rights as laid out in articles 40 - 44 of An Bunreacht 1937.
The National Territory
Article 2
The island of Ireland entirely, along with its islands and its bordering/territorial seas, is the national territories/territory.
Article 2 refers to a 32-county independent sovereign territory
Articles 2 and 3 were removed in the Good Friday (political/legal) agreement, but it was not ratified by a whole-island unilateral referendum at the same time. These articles still exist in law for Irish nationals.
Ireland became a nation without a monarch (independent sovereign republic) in 1937. However, we have a licence to operate in the commercial world via the citizens manual, which gives us our inalienable right to contract or not to contract, which is unlimited.
The commercial world is created through the birth (berth) certificate, giving citizenship under admiralty maritime law (wet law).
Article 3
Until the national territories are made complete again, and without prejudice to the right of the Parliament and the Government that is established by this Constitution to operate jurisdiction in all the national territories, the laws that will be enacted by that Parliament will apply to the same area as the laws of the Irish Free State applied to, and they will have the same effect outside of that area as the laws of the Irish Free-State had.
Article 3 refers to reintegrating our 32-county independent sovereign territory.
Articles 2 & 3 were removed in the Good Friday (political/legal) agreement, but it was not a whole-island unilateral referendum at the same time. These articles still exist in law for Irish nationals.
We became a nation without a monarch (independent sovereign republic) in 1937. However we have a licence to operate in the commercial world via the citizens manual, which gives us our inalienable right to contract or not to contract, which is unlimited.
The commercial world is created through the birth (berth) certificate giving citizenship under admiralty maritime law (wet law).

Your Right to Travel Unhindered
The map on page 3 of your Irish passport confirms that the constitution relates to
the entire island of Éire.
Note that this detailed map of the country
is without borders.
The aim of this website is to educate Irish men and women on their rights and to have them question their preconceived ideas on their powerlessness in this regard, when in essence it is the people of Éire (Ireland) who truly hold the power. It is not legal or lawful advice.
Maxim of Law:
"He who fails to assert his rights has none".
Your rights are also protected by The European Convention on Human Rights. Click black Button above.
You also have Unalienable Rights which no man, or government can remove without your consent.
Know your rights and be aware of potential legislations that could hinder or even remove them.
If you don't exercise your rights they become redundant. Each man and woman must stand for their rights for democracy to survive.
