The Irish Republic of 1798, more commonly called the Republic of Connacht, was a short lived puppet state of the French Republic proclaimed during the Irish Rebellion of 1798 that resulted from the French Revolutionary Wars. In theory the Republic was to cover the whole island of Ireland, but its functional control was limited to only very small parts of the Province of Connacht.
