from Part III - Confliction
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 18 June 2022
On July 12, 1998, the Orangemen requested permission to parade through the neighborhood of Drumcree along Garvaghy Road, most of whose population professes Catholicism. They wanted to walk up to the heart of Portadown, the town (southeast of Belfast) that witnessed the foundation of their fraternity in 1795. Their forebears had been marching this route since 1807, celebrating the triumph of the Protestant William III over his Catholically baptized father-in-law King James II in the 1690 Battle of Boyne. This military victory established Anglo-Saxon domination and Protestantism’s supremacy in the region.
