Good Friday Referendums (Age of Kings)

The Good Friday Referendums were two referendums held on April 10th, 1998 on the question of reuniting Northern and Southern Ireland within the United Kingdom.

Ireland had been divided in two since the implementation of the Fourth Home Rule Act in 1920, with the understanding that eventually the two Irelands would reunite upon successful negotiations between the Unionists and Parliamentarians. In practice, however, each side consistently held implausible demands that the other refused and the issue lapsed, brought up in theory by Southern politicians every now and then but never seriously acted upon.
