A short video about the Irish province of Ulster and how it was carved up by the British government and Unionist religious supremacists to give the Unionist minority in Ireland their own sectarian statelet 'Northern Ireland' 'Northern Ireland' is often wrongly referred to as Ulster by Loyalists who havent a clue about the province. They also say 'Ulster is British' In March and May of 1920, the Ulster Unionist Council met and decided to Surrender 3 counties of Ulster to Dublin without a fight. Loyalists have tried to airbrush this surrender from history in songs such as 'Englishmans Betrayal' or 'The Betrayal' Ulster has an Irish Nationalist majority which wants a united Ireland free from British occupation. In Ulster - Co.Donegal nationalist majority Co.Fermanagh nationalist majority Co.Cavan nationalist majority Co.Tyrone nationalist majority Co.Monaghan nationalist majority Co.
