RE: Motorcycle Travel Series by @velimir 'The Wire That Small Minds Love' (Part #246)

So far I only know about the separated wire or wall in NORTH IRELAND The so-called "line of peace" in Northern Ireland began appearing 40 years ago in Belfast, only temporarily, but it continues. The shape is the dividing wall between the houses Catholic and Protestant, with varying sizes ranging from a few hundred meters to five kilometers. Although the line is now more a tourist center, this is evidence of a history of violence involving Catholics and Protestants in Northern Ireland, one of the territories in the United Kingdom The first wall was built in 1969, following the riots and homes in the western region of Belfast. After that, for many years the wall separating Shankill and the Falls road was elevated to 6 meters. The newest wall was built last year, the primary school in Northern Belfast , following the new inter-community.
