Nothern Ireland in the 1960/70's, tension erupted into violence as Catholics wanted Northern Ireland to be reunited with the republic of Ireland to the south, but Protestants wanted it to remain part of the UK. Neighbours took up arms against each other, and murders and bombings ensued. Countless children on both sides suffered and watched as loved ones died and seeds of hatred were passed through generations. The British Army and the Royal Ulster Constabulary sided with the Protestants while the Irish Republican Army sided with the catholics there were bombings, shootings and tit for tat killings.
