This documentary/lecture is helping me connect the dots so thank you.

The only minor comment I would make is the change of name from "Norman " to " English" was maybe a little too early in date. After the Normans invaded what would become Britain, they were effectively an army in occupation in many areas for the next 200 years. Altogether, this is an excellent video - a very fair explanation of a highly complex history.

But the second it's done for self, or the rulers (kings, Queens, etc) 1st, & then for the people (group & structure ) next, then we can rape, torture, & butcher whomever gets in the way. Cold hard facts! But OMG, these serial killers? How is this possible, how can they do this? Oh they must be "EVIL" ! Yep that explains it all. We'll do all these elaborate studies to try to figure out what is just human nature! And in human nature, we will always find some justification for what we do. Which could mean that the serial killer is at least more honest & true to what they are. Ironically it's only after they are caught, that they start questioning themselves, & talking the same talk of the indoctrinated masses.

But last year I started learning Irish again and this summer went to Donegal to an Irish language course and to my slight surprise there were as many Americans there as Irish varying from 20's to 70's getting to know them by socialising in the bar in the evening I was left dumbfounded by how much of the Irish culture was preserved in the States. There was a girl from Minnesota who played the harp singing songs as Gaeilge I shit you not from the 1700's. It made me think about the horrible conditions that forced their ancestors out of Ireland (as well as plenty of my own) and that pain has travelled through the centuries to people several generations removed from Ireland leaving them while proud to be American feeling somewhere in the back of their minds the aren't where they should be. Long Story short it might have taken me 34 years but I get what your saying and if you feel as you say, Ireland is only a flight away and a wonderful country with the best people on Earth anyway Slán go fóill mo chara.

The Conquest of Ireland arguably wasn’t fully completed until the Act of Union in 1800 when the Kingdom of Ireland (after centuries of constitutional and regime changes) was forcibly merged into the British state (though our civil service and courts remained separate, and we retained our legislative representatives). Those representatives forced to sit in London instead of Dublin, but went back to Ireland in 1919 and declared independence in a reconstituted Irish Parliament (copying the Hungarian walkout of the Austrian parliament in the 1860s). European history is very complicated as you can imagine !

There were christians in Ireland before St Patrick infact he mentions it in his writing. These christians who brought christianity were the coptic christians from Egypt and monks who settled around the west coast of the island. Evidence is still there today in county Kerry at Skellig michael of a coptic monastery. Some of the ancient Irish symbols are coptic rather than Roman.

Beautiful Ireland 🇮🇪 ❤️

I'm just glad you mentioned mael sechnail drowning thorgis in a loch. That man was a badass among badasses. Also the mael sechnail that drowned thorgis wasn't the same mael sechnail that fought Brian boru

Thank you so much for uploading this video. It is helping me get through the pandemic!

Really enjoy your thorough and fascinating videos. I learn more from you than a year in college. My family has mostly very far northern European roots, but some of them were Irish. The conflict is interesting to contemplate. Thank you for taking the time to create these videos.

Thanks for the Irish documentary.

Great info - Thanks

good videos you keep to the facts that is all we ask for.

This is gonna be exciting. I know next to nothing about Ireland, but I'm very interested in it.

poro poro I'll let you into a secret, it rains a lot over Ireland so the people all have to shelter in big dry buildings known as pubs where they consume more liquid than the clouds emptied over the land, and then fight and fall down a lot.

FYI, "Ogham" is pronounced "O-am." The H silences the G (Irish is a strange language that way!)

actually makes sense because irish "o" sound is narrow and short yet "gh" makes it wider. like bodhran. i guess "h" acts like a merging characther.

Excellent. Some fascinating details here.

Just a quick note - @15:48 although vikings, but those on picture are sailing to Russia, not Ireland. Painting by Nikolas Roerich "Guests from overseas(Varangians in Rus)".

O'Brien in the 24th century. Sneaked in quickly and quietly (I had to go back and listen again). Looked like the Irish lived long and prospered.

A Greek geographer named Hecataeus in the 6th century BC encountered a tribal people in southern France that he called Κελτοί or Keltoi. About a century later, Herodotus used the same word to describe certain tribes living near the head of the Danube, but without any evidence that they were related to the Κελτοί from near Marseille. Other writers picked up the word “Κελτοί” so that it became a generic Greek term for “tribal people living in lands north of the Mediterranean.” As the Romans expanded northward towards the Italian Alps, they encountered people who called themselves Gauls (“Galli” in Latin). These Gauls were also to be found on the other side of the Alps, in what is now France (Roman Gallia) and in northern Iberia (e.g., Galicia). Roman writers, being familiar with the Greeks, assumed that these were the same people as the Keltoi mentioned by by the Greeks, and thus the terms Galli and Κελτοί, Gauls and Celts, became more or less interchangeable. In the late 17th century AD, linguists came to realize that the surviving languages of northwestern Europe (specifically Irish and Scots Gaelic, Manx, Welsh, Cornish, and Breton) had a common origin. They labeled this branch of the Indo-European language tree “Celtic,” harking back to the Keltoi of yore. This led to the leap of logic that if the old languages of the British Isles were “Celtic,” then the peoples of the islands had to have been Celts too. Thus was born the myth of a race of mystical, Iron Age warrior-poets who colonized the islands and established a great civilization that flourished until the coming of the crass, brutal, and unimaginative Anglo-Saxons many centuries later. As I noted, this myth has been exploded by more recent research. It is now generally believed that a “Celtic” language arrived in these islands around 2500 years ago, was adopted by the people who lived here (descendants of our ancestors who had been procreating here since the end of the Ice Age), and later evolved into the Goidelic language of Ireland and the Brythonic languages of the neighboring island. How or why this came to pass is still the subject of lively debate among academics. One theory that has gained ground in the past few decades is that what are now called the Insular Celtic languages spread from Spain along the northwestern seaboard, initially as a lingua franca for purposes of trade among the peoples of the region. Others still hold to the belief that Celtic-speaking warriors invaded the islands and ruled over the existing inhabitants as a minority aristocratic class. But however the languages came to be planted in the Isles, the absence of an infusion of “Celtic” genetic markers makes clear that there was no mass displacement of the old stock by a “race” of invaders. The Celtic “invasion” was rural and linguistic, not genetic. There was and is no “Celtic race.”

Not complaining, just letting you know, that the Volume levels between videos is not consistent. Love the videos, please keep up the good work!!!

Thank you for the knowledge

The 5000+ year old Newgrange shows a significant level of social and cultural development that ought to be mentioned as a major development in aniquity, long before the Celts arrived.

Newgrange is older that Stone Henge, and is even older than the Egyptian Pyramids. It is one of the most significant cultural markers in Britannia, and possibly all of Europe.
