Northern Ireland was created by the Anglo-Irish Treaty of 1922, which formally concluded the Irish War of Independence. It was governed from the Palace of Stormont, and both Catholics and Protestants debated their membership.  During this time, MP's would travel to and from the Houses of Parliament where they served on Her Majesty's Government.  However, a minority on both sides of the Irish border refused to accept the partition of Ireland and continued to fight the British, through the IRA [[terrorism|terrorist]] group, the PIRA, the UDA, UDF, UCR, Red Hand Brigades and Sons of na h'Eireann, and the Continuity IRA. At the time of writing the conflict has yet to be resolved.
