Does the conflict between Catholics and Protestants correlate with the conflict with the Loyalist and Nationalist parties?
mostly.
most "LOYALIST".. are protestants.. catholics under british rule are considered 'lower class' and live in the slum areas... and these are where the freedom fighters mostly come from.
In my experience the people who exhibit shows of sectarianism have no idea what it is all about. I have came across children as young as 9,shouting Loyalist-Nationalist slogans and all it does is prolongs the bitterness between everyone.Unfortunately this has become a way of life for some,and is just another way of blocking progress.There should be no room for sectarianism in todays society,after all,we are supposed to be living in civilisation.

Two religious groups fight on Northern Ireland Which?
The troubles in Northern Ireland related to politics, not religion as is often portrayed. When it is, they mention Catholics and Protestants. There is now a power-sharing agreement between representatives of the unionist/loyalist community, mostly Protestant, and the nationalist/republican community, mostly Catholic.
What are Reasons for conflict between catholics and protestant in Northern Ireland?
It's not religion, as the media says, but politics. Most Protestants consider themselves British or Loyalist (loyal to the crown), most Catholics Nationalist (want Ireland to be one nation) Many Catholics believe that Protestants opressed them and groups such as the IRA fought against the protestant government in England as they want to be ruled by Dublin in the Republic of Ireland. Protestant groups such as the UDA and UVF fought to defend the union as they are loyal to the crown. In the 1990s a peace process started and things are much improved now, with both sides working together.
What is the conflict between Protestants and Catholics post reformation?
A:After the Reformation and the subsequent Catholic counter-Reformation, Catholics and Protestants gradually began to accept the existence of the others, even while believing that only their own positions were right. A continuing potential for conflict, or at least ill-will and suspicion, is that the Catholic Church insisted that as the true Church it must never be persecuted by non-Catholic secular authorities, but that Catholic rulers had the right and even the duty to persecute non-Catholics.Only with the Second Vatican Council in 1965 did the Catholic Church acknowledge that non-Catholics had the right to freedom from persecution. This was met with some resistance from some Catholics, but the Church is now moving towards friendly relationships with Protestants and even atheists. Pope Francis recently asked all Christians to pray for peace and for the non-religious to desire peace - a remarkable concession to those outside the Catholic faith.
In the civil war what were the nationalists and the loyalists supported by?

The American Civil War was split into two sides: the Union (those wishing the country to remain whole) and the Confederate (those wishing to split the country into two).

Is there any more that can be done to bridge the divide between Catholics and Protestants in Northern Ireland?
The problem is not between Catholics and Protestants, despite the way it is portrayed. It is between the nationalist/republican groups and unionists/loyalist groups. Most do split along Catholic and Protestant lines, but the issues are around power and political issues and not religion itself. It is quite a complex problem. To sort it, people have to keep on talking and work together and build trust. That is happening, and things are much improved, but there are still people who have difficulties doing that.
