Any recommendations for books and/or documentaries on the IRA campaigns in the mid-late 1900s? I think it's crazy that there was a almost 30 year long guerilla war fought in a modern first world country.

No, seriously, it wasn't until the 90's, which you may recall is when all the murder stopped.

The Troubles are the biggest meme war in modern history, it's literally irrelevant and we only know it because American/British entertainment media keep shoving that shit down our throats.

>3500 dead/40 years = 87.5 dead per year
> 87.5 / 365 = 0.25 deaths per day
So, one irishman died every day for forty years?

I'm not sure if you're making a joke that Irishmen are only half human or if you're really bad at math.

Ireland is first world, but Northern Ireland is a shithole. They have a lower GDP per capita than Poland.

That's fucking nothing. Fucking Chicago has a worse murder rate than their entire fucking "war".
