In most of Ireland that does not happen. Protestants, Catholics and those of other religions live in the same places. It is only a feature in Northern Ireland. Normally each sees themselves as a separate community. Like anywhere in the world, people will go to live with other people that they see as being like themselves. So that is what happens in Northern Ireland. Even in Northern Ireland though, there are places where Catholics and Protestants do live together or close to each other, so it is not completely segregated, as often portrayed or believed to be.
Why did londonderry upset catholics?
Catholics are very mainly nationalists. Nationalists are people who want to keep Ireland as one nation, with no Northern Ireland. This is because Northern Ireland is ruled by the U.K and Nationalists want to break this link. Londonderry is the second town of Northern Ireland and the 'London' part of this name annoys Catholics because it is obviously associated with the U.K. I live in Londonderry and I am a Unionist but the majority of my Nationalist friends simply drop the bit they don't like and call our town, 'Derry'.
