The Irish actually had a Civil War after Independence, with the IRA fighting the Free State Army - the only people with a chip on their shoulder are the Old Guard who wanted a whole island Irish State, the rest don’t feel acrimoniously towards the Brits (speaking as someone from an Irish Catholic background, with lots of family in Ireland).
