Other imports include grain, coal, chemicals, and iron and steel. Among the chief exports are petroleum products, soap, food stuffs and textiles.
In Belfast, there are the notable Ulster Museum and the Protestant Cathedral of St. Anne. As an educational center, the city is home to Queen’s University of Belfast and Belfast College of Technology.

Edward Bruce destroyed the settlement in 1315, the year he became the Irish King. The city was taken by the English in the 16th century. In the late 17th century, French refugees arrived here and developed the linen industry. The harbor was improved in the late 18th century. And ship-building was begun on a large scale. The city was made the capital of Northern Ireland in 1920. During World War Ⅱ , Belfast was heavily damaged by German bombing raids. Beginning in 1969, the city was the scene of religious disorder involving civil rights agitation and increased violence.
