The Northern Ireland Executive consists of the First Minister and Deputy First Minister and various ministers with individual portfolios and remits. The main Assembly parties appoint most ministers in the executive, except for the Minister of Justice who is elected by a cross-community vote. It is one of three devolved governments in the United Kingdom, the others being the Scottish and Welsh Governments.
Ministers
Until the election to the Northern Ireland Assembly in May 2016, the ministers in the Executive are:
A power-sharing Northern Ireland Executive was formed following the Northern Ireland Assembly elections of 1973. The executive served as the devolved government of Northern Ireland from 1 January 1974 until its collapse on 28 May 1974.
The UUP was deeply divided; its Standing Committee voted to participate in the executive by a margin of only 132 to 105. Since the partition of Ireland, unionists had been opposed to sharing power with the Irish nationalist minority, and the end of majoritarianism caused great strife in the UUP. Other contentious issues were internment, policing and the question of the planned Council of Ireland.
The island's geography comprises relatively low-lying mountains surrounding a central plain, with several navigable rivers extending inland. The island has lush vegetation, a product of its mild but changeable climate which avoids extremes in temperature. Thick woodlands covered the island until the Middle Ages. As of 2013, the amount of land that is wooded in Ireland is about 11% of the total, compared with a European average of 35%. There are 26 extant mammal species native to Ireland. The Irish climate is very moderated and classified as oceanic. As a result, winters are milder than expected for such a northerly area. However, summers are cooler than those in Continental Europe. Rainfall and cloud cover are abundant.

Northern Ireland Situation War, within a single nation No one thinks of it as war That's what television's for Embroidering reality, with clichés and ??? We'll call this war the 'troubles' Confuse the masses with initials (IRA, UVA, UVA, IRA, ILA, IUC) There's so many sides involved And no one thinks it can be solved Avoidance of the history of suppression, death and misery Will leave the people, ignorant of everything that's relevant So who is who defending, and who's protecting who? Until you know the answers, don't pretend you do do do do don't pretend you do! So we see the brave young soldiers And we read about the murders Then we place our weak opinions On what the papers tell us But telling half the truth is as bad as telling lies For a war to keep continuing There has to be two sides! But who is who defending, who's protecting who? Until you know the answers, don't pretend you do do do do don't pretend you do! Supporting one side or the other Is really nothing more Than saying there is no solution But to carry on the war And both the IRA and the army Are equally to blame In general terms of violence You know they're doing just, they're doing just, they're doing just the same Doing just the same So who is who defending, and who's protecting who? Until you know the answers, don't pretend you do do do do don't pretend you do!
