The people on the borders have been forgotten and left out of the story of the partition of Ireland. Donegal, Cavan and Monaghan, the three lost counties of Ulster, are both a source of shame and embarrassment for the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. They are an unrecognized minority within the largely homogenized Catholic nation of Ireland. They are also the abandoned kin of the people of the six counties of Ulster that comprise Northern Ireland. Listen to University College Dublin Professor Edward Burke, author of Ulster’s Lost Counties: Paramilitarism and Loyalism since 1920, and find out why we can’t understand the story of the partition of Ireland without including the lost counties.
