    Because those who lived in the majority of Ulster decided they wished to remain British and not leave the UK, while Ireland decided they wished to become a free state100yrs ago and then later the republic and they still wish to remain part of the UK

    Prior to 1922, all of Ireland was part of the United Kingdom.  The South wanted to leave: the North wanted to remain.  The United Kingdom do not intend to throw Northern Ireland out against the will of the people.
