History-Sode | The Two Irelands

Have you ever wondered why there’s a Republic of Ireland and a Northern Ireland—even though they share the same island?

This episode gently explains how history, religion, and politics shaped two governments, and why today’s Ireland is a place of both memory and peace.

Kid-friendly and easy to follow, this episode breaks down borders with curiosity and care.
