      Three questions:
      1. What exactly happened to the West side of the island?
      2. Does it have anything to do with the old glow-in-the-dark being dumped nearby?
      3. Where's the warehouse for all the roads?

    No better woman, Chloe's a strong leader, and strong enough to be gentle. I've known this since I've met her many years ago. It doesn't surprise me that she's been called to leadership, and I know Inis Oirr is in safe hands.

    The most amazing thing about Inis Oírr to me is that they've always managed to arbitrate disputes without much of a police presence. The police in Ireland were established by the British (the Peacekeeping Protection Force and later the RIC and DMP) as was a punitive justice system. Before that it was brehons and druids who would arbitrate disputes with conflict resolution instead of just trying to hunt and punish people as we do now. Community bonds discouraged crime too which are strong on the island. It's preserved a lot of Irish tradition!

    • @RossBradley-vd5rc
      @RossBradley-vd5rc 8 місяців тому

      Rot! Everbody knows it was leprechauns and the rest of the fae court who decided disputes. You would find yourself a rowan tree and stand before it, or inside a mushroom ring (as long as you made sure to remember to ask permission to enter it, as the little folk would look poorly on you if you forgot) and you would tell your side of the story to them sure in the knowledge that whoever you were in dispute with would do the same. Then you would make your offering (booze, baccy, eggs, milk, honey or blood sometimes depending on how serious and crimson was your dispute) and the faery folk would see to it that if you were in the right things would shake out in your favour and depending on how wrong your opponent was they would get what they deserved.

      Ireland is home to some of the most advance technology and chip manufacturing plants in the world. The issue however, is infrastructure and planning laws mean they don't propagate. You can walk across Ireland and see farmers using donkeys in their fields and next field over see an Intel chip manufacturing plant. You can drive your newly purchased Tesla off the dealership and drive it back to your 400 year old cottage. It's a mix of both worlds.
