Orange Order

The Orange Order appears in 698. The Troubles: The Brink of Civil War (Part 2) through the July 1969 marching season in Northern Ireland. The episode says the 12 July Orange parades brought worse rioting, especially in Belfast, and contributed to forced displacement of Catholic and Protestant families.

In the source, Orange marching is part of a wider ritual and street-politics field. Public commemoration, territorial memory, civil-rights protest, and policing decisions all become ways that each community reads threat.
