From the Paper:

"Northern Ireland has been the home of considerable violence for more than thirty years. This conflict known as the Troubles has endured since 1966. The history of the conflict starts as early as 1922 and continues today. Northern Ireland has been through violent riots, mass protests and demonstrations, and the loss of thousands of lives due to the conflict. Catholics and Protestants have been engaged in this power-struggle for more than three decades, but there are signs of hope for resolution. Peace talks have been underway for decades and are starting to make progress. Though the history of Northern Ireland is dreadful, the future is looking more and more hopeful each day."
