Irish Civil War: Fratricide in the Free State (2022x39)

Air date: Jul 09, 2022

Fought over ten bitter months, the Irish Civil War was a brutal capstone to the independence story: an epilogue written in the blood of brothers. Taking place in both cities and open countryside, it pitted friends against neighbors, sons against fathers in a great, fratricidal struggle. A struggle that would change Irish history. In this third part of our loose series on Irish Independence, we’re delving deep into the Civil War - a conflict that still scars Ireland to this very day.
