In the tumult of national awakenings, struggles and independence from imperialist powers, the Republic of Ireland also began its path to independence. However, it still failed to gain complete integrity because Northern Ireland, or the northern part of the Irish island, remained part of the United Kingdom. Only about forty years after the independence of the Republic of Ireland, the three-decade-long conflicts in the territory of Northern Ireland began, the struggle for civil rights and equality between Catholics and Protestants, which was interspersed with various protests, police violence and terrorist attacks. Of course, the conflict was also reflected in pop culture, where artists expressed their dissatisfaction or support for situations or individuals through music and film. It is very difficult to determine in detail what will happen next in the north of the Irish island precisely because of the deep divisions among the Irish themselves, but any idea of unification was disrupted by Brexit, the withdrawal of United Kingdom from European Union which prompted questions about situation on British-Irish border, what makes determining the further development of the situation the biggest challenge.
