There is no conflict between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.After Ireland was split into two countries (Northern Ireland & the Republic) most of the conflict was within Northern Ireland only. This was between the two communities and the conflict was over Irish Unification and Independence from Britain. It mostly involved terrorists on both sides, and the security forces trying to control the situation. This was not a war in the traditional sense, in that there was not continual fighting on the streets. Events could be weeks apart, and then just be one single shooting or a bomb.
