What Happened to the Old Irish Flag?

The Irish Flag, well, strictly speaking the flag of the Republic of Ireland, is known in Irish Gaelic as the "Bratach na hÉireann" and is one of the newer European tricolours to gain official recognition among those of the Dutch, Gemans, French and Italians. In this video I'll be looking both at the official tricolour of Ireland but also at the flag containing a harp on both a blue and green background known as the "Harp of Erin."
