Soviet Union was collapsed and Empire of Russia was established after the Anti-Communist War. But there was still some communist factions across the Europe and Russia which was operating secretly.

Meanwhile in Dublin, the People's Intelligence Agency (PIA) was the PRI's shield and sword, working tirelessly to root out any threats to the communist state. Its agents, shrouded in secrecy, were ever vigilant, their ears attuned to the whispers of dissent.

On a cold January night, in a dimly lit basement room beneath the streets of Dublin, a team of PIA operatives huddled around a crackling radio transmitter. Static filled the air, but amidst the noise, a faint voice emerged. It spoke in Spanish, a language familiar to the seasoned operatives. The message, once decoded, revealed a sinister plot: the Spanish government, with the aid of the Irish Public Assistance (IPA), an underground anti-communist faction, was planning to overthrow the communist government in Ireland.

The revelation sent shockwaves through the PIA. The People's Safety Police (PSP), the enforcement arm of the PRI, were immediately alerted. A crackdown was ordered, and the streets of Dublin would soon run red with the blood of traitors and spies.

The PSP launched a series of night raids across Dublin and other major cities. Suspected members of the IPA were rounded up, their homes searched, their families interrogated. The once hidden faction was brought into the harsh light of day. Fear gripped the capital as the crackdown spread. Informers, eager to save their own skins, turned in friends and neighbors.

As the PSP intensified their crackdown, the PIA worked feverishly to decipher more intercepted communications. They uncovered a network of safe houses, code words, and hidden messages. Each piece of information brought them closer to dismantling the IPA and thwarting the Spanish plot.

In Spain, the government was growing anxious. Their operatives in Ireland were being picked off one by one. Then the Spanish government order Office of Army Intelligence(OAI) to infiltrate the Ireland and conduct covert operations to support IPA. But after the agents reached every hideouts of IPA, they reported to their higher ups that almost all the members of IPA were arrested or killed. Then Spanish government called those agents back and decided to stop all their operations in Ireland.

Then People's Republic of Ireland remained, but the events of those turbulent years left an indelible mark on its soul. The struggle for power, the clash of ideologies, and the enduring human spirit in the face of oppression became a part of the nation's collective memory, a reminder of a time when the fate of a country hung in the balance

In the spring of 1949, with the Spanish government ordering the cessation of all Office of Army Intelligence (OAI) operations in Ireland, the balance of power began to shift once more. The British intelligence agency MI6 saw an opportunity to destabilize the communist People's Republic of Ireland (PRI) and launched covert operations to support a new anti-communist faction: the Irish Union Army (IUA).

The IUA, led by the charismatic and shrewd Michael Collins Jr., was a formidable force. Discontent with the PRI's rule had been simmering beneath the surface, and Collins Jr. capitalized on this unrest. With MI6 providing funds, weapons, and strategic guidance, the IUA quickly expanded its influence, recruiting from both rural and urban populations disillusioned with the communist regime.

MI6 operatives worked tirelessly, smuggling arms into Ireland and establishing a network of safe houses and communication lines. The British saw the IUA as a critical ally in their broader strategy to eradicate communism from Europe. They provided the IUA with cutting-edge equipment and training, transforming a disparate group of rebels into a well-coordinated insurgent force.

Despite the surge in IUA activity, communist factions within Britain remained loyal to the PRI. These factions, although weakened and operating clandestinely, began leaking information to the PIA in Ireland. They hoped to thwart MI6’s efforts and bolster the communist regime in Dublin.
