What happened December 1921 AD

Most IRA officers on the ground interpreted the Truce merely as a temporary respite and continued recruiting and training volunteers. Nor did attacks on the RIC or British Army cease altogether. Between December 1921 and February of the next year, there were 80 recorded attacks by the IRA on the soon to be disbanded RIC, leaving 12 dead.

The Peace talks led to the negotiation of the Anglo-Irish Treaty (6 December 1921).

Churchill was involved in negotiations with Sinn Féin leaders and helped draft the Anglo-Irish Treaty.
