2006 Peace Process
The 2006 peace process in Northern Ireland was an effort to end decades of conflict known as "The Troubles," involving Protestant Unionists and Catholic Nationalists. It resulted in the St Andrews Agreement, which restored the Northern Ireland Assembly and established power-sharing between communities. The process aimed to promote political stability, address historical grievances, and foster cooperation through negotiations, reforms, and community engagement. This movement marked a significant step toward lasting peace, reducing violence and encouraging reconciliation among different groups, ultimately leading to a more peaceful and self-governing Northern Ireland within the United Kingdom.
