Eamon de Valera was anti treaty and helped create Fianna Fáil.

Michael Collins was pro treaty and helped create Fine Gael.

Their split led to the Irish Civil War.

In two weeks anti and pro treaty parties will most likely form a coalition for a new government.

May I suggest a name for this new party, The Real Sinn Féin.
