La Guerre De Troyes

The Troubles refers to approximately three decades of violence between of Northern Ireland's nationalists and its unionist community. The conflict was the result of discrimination against the Nationalist/Catholic minority by the Unionist/Protestant majority and the question of Northern Ireland's status within the United Kingdom

The violence was characterised by the armed campaigns of Irish republican and Ulster loyalist military groups. These included the Irish Republican Army (IRA) campaign intended to end British rule in Northern Ireland and to reunite Ireland politically.

The Troubles were brought to an uneasy end by a peace process that included the declaration of ceasefires by most fighting organisations, the complete decommissioning of the IRA's weapons, and the reform of the police.

THE FALKLANDS WAR

The Falklands War was a 1982 war between Argentina and the United Kingdom. The conflict resulted from the long-standing dispute over the sovereignty of the Falkland Islands and South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, which lie in the South Atlantic, east of Argentina.

The Falklands War began on Friday 2 April 1982, when Argentine forces invaded and occupied the Falkland Islands and South Georgia. The British government dispatched a naval task force to engage the Argentine Navy and Air Force, and retake the islands by amphibious assault. The resulting conflict lasted 74 days and ended with the Argentine surrender on 14 June 1982, which returned the islands to British control.
