Hi all,

Am I wrong in thinking that Protestants in the Republic are doing pretty well and don't live lower quality lives that their Catholic (and other) neighbors? My world almanac (1995) states that 3% of the Republic's population is Anglican. If their fairing pretty well, one would assume that the 2/3 majority of N.I. should survive fine if they become part of the Republic, shouldn't they?

Sure, the 2/3 majority of N.I. don't really care about that, but it's kind of interesting.

Also - another question. How many people emmigrate from N.I. to the Republic each year. Are people even allowed to?

pax yall and thanks for a wonderful series of pretty positive comments on this topic. It's pretty rare around here.
