This is one database we haven't had to look at for some time - a far cry from the 1970s and 1980s when Ulster was a battleground. Out next week, the results of the Saville enquiry - criticised by some - into the deaths on Bloody Sunday have highlighted just how bad things got in the province.

We were interested to see how things have changed, so we've gone back to the ultimate resource of sectarian violence statistics in Northern Ireland: The Sutton Index of Deaths, from the Conflict Archive on the Internet, or CAIN.

The sheet shows all the deaths in every year since the 1960s — look at the second spreadsheet for a complete breakdown across the security forces
