Question

ILL MARK BRAINLIEST PLEASE HELP Which of the following was not true of Northern Ireland: A) The Irish Republican Army supported the Protestant majority B) British troops were unsuccessful in calming the hostilities there C) Both Catholics and Protestants resorted to violence to draw attention to their cause D) The Catholic minority continues to demand unification with Ireland​

Answer 1

Answer: A) The Irish Republican Army supported the Protestant majority

Explanation:

The Irish Republican Army (IRA) fought the British in Northern Ireland in the hopes of gaining independence for Northern Ireland so that they could unite with Southern Ireland.

The IRA supported the Catholics in the minority not the Protestants who are in the majority in Northern Island. Perhaps this is why the IRA was unable to win, they were formed to represent the minority, not the majority.
