Such important figures as Michael Collins and Éamon de Valera emerged on the world media stage as leaders of the Irish revolutionary struggle, facing British political heavyweights such as Winston Churchill and Lloyd George. The tactics, both in guerrilla warfare and in radicalizing the Irish population, would eventually force a British withdrawal and a treaty leading to an independent Irish state.
