After the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Castlebar" title="Battle of Castlebar">Battle of Castlebar</a> which took place on 27 August 1798, General Humbert, on 31 August 1798, issued the following decree, which <i><a href="/wiki/Inter_alia" class="mw-redirect" title="Inter alia">inter alia</a></i> appointed John Moore as the President of the Government of the Province of Connacht:<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <blockquote class="quote-frame pullquote" style="font-size: 95%; padding: 0.5em 2em; background-color: var( --background-color-neutral-subtle, #f8f9fa ); color: var( --color-base, black ); border: 1px solid #aaa; display:table; float:none;"><div style="padding: 0.6em 1em;">Army Of Ireland <p>Liberty, Equality </p><p>Head quarters at Castlebar, 14th <a href="/wiki/Fructidor" title="Fructidor">Fructidor</a>, sixth Year of the French Republic, One and Indivisible. </p><p>General Humbert, Commander in Chief of the Army of Ireland, desirous of organising with the least possible delay, an administrative power for the Province of Connacht, decrees as follows: </p> <ol><li>The Government of the Province of <a href="/wiki/Connacht" title="Connacht">Connacht</a> shall reside at Castlebar till further orders.</li> <li>The Government shall be composed of twelve members, who shall be named by the General-in-chief of the French Army.</li> <li>Citizen JOHN MOORE is named President of the Government of the Province of Connacht, he is specially entrusted with the nomination and reunion of the members of the Government.</li> <li>The Government shall occupy itself immediately in organising the Military power of the Province of Connacht, and with providing subsistence for the French and Irish Armies.</li> <li>There shall be organised eight regiments of infantry, each of twelve hundred men, and four regiments of cavalry, each of six hundred men.</li> <li>The Government shall declare rebels and traitors to the country all those who having received clothing and arms, shall not join the army within four and twenty hours.</li> <li>Every individual from sixteen years of age to forty, inclusive, is REQUIRED in the name of the Irish Republic, to betake himself instantly to the French Camp, to march in a mass against the common enemy, the Tyrant of ANGLICIZED IRELAND, whose destruction alone can establish the independence and happiness of ANCIENT HIBERNIA.<br /><cite style="display: block; text-align: right;"> — General Humbert, <i>Commanding-in-Chief</i></cite></li></ol></div></blockquote> <p>The above decree refers to an <i>Irish Republic</i>, not a <i><a href="/wiki/Republic_of_Connacht" class="mw-redirect" title="Republic of Connacht">Republic of Connacht</a></i>. Hence, strictly speaking, it appears to be incorrect to refer to any formal establishment of a <i>Republic of Connacht</i> or of John Moore being appointed its President. Instead, an <i>Irish Republic</i> had been proclaimed, and John Moore was appointed the President of one of its provinces, Connacht.<sup class="plainlinks nourlexpansion citation" id="ref_Republic"><a href="#endnote_Republic">a</a></sup> Nevertheless, as civil or political appointments were not made for any other province of the short-lived <i>1798 Irish Republic</i>, the <i>Republic of Connacht</i> is the name that has long been commonly used for that <i>Irish Republic</i>. Either way, the new republic was proclaimed by the French to increase their political and logistical support in Ireland. </p><p>The general tasks with which Moore was entrusted as President are apparent from the above decree. However, the rebel Republic was a <a href="/wiki/Puppet_state" title="Puppet state">puppet state</a> and was very short-lived (discussed below). The main problem for Moore was that the Irish <a href="/wiki/Irish_Catholic_Bishops%27_Conference" title="Irish Catholic Bishops' Conference">Roman Catholic Hierarchy</a> was vehemently opposed to French republicanism, whether from the <a href="/wiki/Dechristianization_of_France_during_the_French_Revolution" title="Dechristianization of France during the French Revolution">Dechristianization of France during the French Revolution</a>, or the French expulsion of <a href="/wiki/Pope_Pius_VI" title="Pope Pius VI">Pope Pius VI</a> earlier in 1798, that resulted in a short-lived <a href="/wiki/Roman_Republic_(18th_century)" class="mw-redirect" title="Roman Republic (18th century)">"Roman Republic"</a>. </p><p>Nevertheless, among the things which President Moore did have time to do was to issue "<i>paper money to a considerable extent...[i]n the name of the French Government</i>".<sup id="cite_ref-books.google.com_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-books.google.com-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Capture_and_trial">Capture and trial</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=John_Moore_(Irish_politician)&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Capture and trial"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In September 1798, just weeks after its proclamation, the <a href="/wiki/Irish_Royal_Army" class="mw-redirect" title="Irish Royal Army">Irish Royal Army</a> mobilised westwards and the Republic was lost with defeat at the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Ballinamuck" title="Battle of Ballinamuck">Battle of Ballinamuck</a>.
