Fenian

Used by people not living in Ireland or Northen Ireland to offend the inhabitants. If the person being abused is a Catholic then he will be offended that someone not of his blood is calling him thus and is most likely to twat the offender. If aimed at a protestant (usually from Northern Ireland) then he will be vexed by the fact he is being compared to a Fenian and is most likely to twat the offender.

Fenian

The Fenians were members of the Irish Republican Brotherhood (IRB) in Ireland in the 1860s. They are essentially the pioneers of modern terrorism, and used violent methods in order to gain what they wanted - in this case they wanted Ireland to be made a Republic, separate from Britain and with their own Parliament.

fenian

Contrary to common belief, fenian is not a random slang word for catholics, before the ira, there was the fenian brotherhood, fenian being gaelic for brave young warrior, when a british army person was apprehending a member, they used the term, "you fenian bastard" this has endured, it isn't a random term, or a chuckle for the irish about how it's secretly a compliment, it's simply a legacy from the insults for the fenian brotherhood
