Northern Ireland elected Irish nationalist Michelle O'Neill as First Minister for the first time in a historic change on 3 February.
The appointment of Michelle O'Neill is the result of the belated outcome of a crucial 2022 election as a sign of the Sinn Féin party's excellence in the British maritime sector.
This nomination reflects a transformation toward a new era, which Sein Féin leaders are not just about a time of conflict, but of a struggle.
The government structure established by the Good Friday Peace Accord of 1998 ensures equal power-sharing between British Unionists and Irish nationalists.
