Command Structure==
+
Irish Army takes its orders from the [[Ireland#Government|Government of Ireland]] and is under the command of the Department of Defence.
+
+
The role of MU Commander is handed down at the retirement of the previous Irish Army Commander. The decision of who will be appointed to this role takes into council all of those involved in the command operations of the unit, and naturally requires the general approval of the government and people of Ireland. Importantly, the Commander of the IA is not a political position, and so is handled separately from monthly changes in government cabinets. The Commander of the Irish Army's term is indefinite.

==Commune and Logistics==
+
The Irish Army offers 10 Q7 weapons or 40 IEP maximum supply, to those who work in an Irish Army Commune. Supplies are then given out to commune soldiers automatically based on their previous days statistics. The Irish Army uses a custom Logistics Tool which imports a soldiers fighting statistics from eRepublik, without any paperwork or hassle for the soldier. This system has significantly cut down on the work involved in supplying soldiers, and has allowed the unit to more than double its capacity as compared to the old supply form method.
+
+
Commune companies are provided by patriotic volunteers such as [[James Keiller]].

Note that the mechanics of eRepublik no longer transfer national structures in this way following wipes, the circumstances surrounding the foundation of the Irish Army are unique to the time and mechanics of this period in history. Before this event took place the Irish community was characterized by disunity (infighting) between its citizens; notably between the [[Irish Citizens Army]] (ICA) and the [[Irish Defence Force]] (IDF). Note again that during this period in eRepublik's development there were not in-game military units, therefore military organizations were entirely player organized and defined.

After the disunity that had characterized Ireland, a popular attitude became that the silver lining to the wipe of December 2010 was
that it provided a
fresh start for the nation's community. In this spirit of potential unity the Irish Army was formed, and in the process of developing this new national military unit both ex-IDF and ex-ICA members were brought into the ranks of command and service. Among the founders of this new unit are recorded [[CelticTiger211]], [[Marcus Suridius]], [[Orangejuicemmm]], and [[Seanan]]. It is worth noting that at the time of the Irish Army's foundation these founders represented a coming together of
large and respected
groups in the community who had formerly been opposed to each other. These four founders were at one time inducted into a hall of fame for their service to the Irish Army, along side [[EmalS]] who contributed companies to supply the unit, [[Nephworks]] who was an outstanding commander, and [[Chance Harrison]] who was inducted as a celebrated soldier.
