This is just a guess, but about 35,000 from Southern Ireland?
Much more than that served.. Over 50,000 soldiers from Ireland died fighting for UK in WW1

Many Irish joined the British Army, because they were promised freedom for Ireland, like the Jews were promised Israel. In both cases, the British lied.
It seems like the enemies of the Provisional Irish Republican Army would be the British. That's what the research that I did on this topic.
Through much of its history, Ireland has been involved in conflicts with the British in order to get their independence. Ireland has also had invasions from the vikings. Ireland is a neutral country, so it is not involved in any conflicts now and was not involved in World War II. It was not directly involved in World War I, but it was under British rule at that time, and the British were involved. In both World Wars many Irish men joined the British Army and fought in the wars, many losing their lives. As a neutral nation Ireland is not in any military alliances, such as NATO, and it has a strong record in peacekeeping activities. There is an Irish army, but it is not very large. Some of its personnel go on peacekeeping duties to other parts of the world.
To no longer be under the British, to declare Ireland as a nation of only Irish leaders
Ireland was a neutral country, but under British rule and Britain was involved in the war. An Irish army was not involved in World War I, but many Irish people joined the British army and fought in the war.
The British Army general who famously joined the Irish Republican Army (IRA) is Sir John "Jack" McEwan. He was a former British Army officer who became involved with the IRA during the tumultuous period of the Irish War of Independence. His actions were controversial, as they represented a significant shift in allegiance from a British military background to supporting Irish republicanism. McEwan's case highlights the complexities of loyalty and identity during Ireland's struggle for independence.

No, Ireland and Britain are different countries, you would have to leave the Irish Army, then try to get permission to join the British army

During World War II, it is estimated that around 100,000 Irish citizens enlisted in the British Army between 1939 and 1945. This number includes individuals from both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, despite the latter's official policy of neutrality during the conflict. Many joined the military for various reasons, including economic necessity and a desire to fight against fascism. The contributions of these Irish soldiers were significant in various campaigns throughout the war.

Yes, an Irish person has to take an oath of allegiance to the British crown if they decide to join the British Army.

During World War I, two main groups from Ireland participated: the British Army and the Irish Volunteers. The British Army included many Irish soldiers who enlisted to support the British war effort, while the Irish Volunteers, initially formed to oppose British rule, eventually saw some members join the war, particularly after the 1916 Easter Rising. Additionally, the Irish Republican Army (IRA) emerged later as a nationalist force, but they did not actively participate in WWI. Overall, the involvement of Irish soldiers was significant, with around 200,000 serving in various capacities.
