    Props if you spotted these errors:
    At 3:30 I should have said 4th Dublin Battalion instead of Brigade.
    At 5:02 there is an horrendous copy and paste error, Casement died in 1916, not 1922.
    At 6:19 I should have said O'Flanagan.
    You'd think I'd be making less mistakes having done this for 2 years! The Irish Nation Lives turns 2 on the 24th of April, thank you all for your support. I'll be streaming "Kaiserreich" live on Twitch that evening from 6pm, join in at: www.twitch.tv/maniacalinc

      I've also just spotted that the Keating Branch was founded by J.J. (Sceilg) O'Kelly, not Séan T. O'Kelly.

    I've hung around a lot, I'm old now but I'll hang around a little more, when we get rid of the shisters in Dublin NATO and EU we might even achieve the dreamt about Republic of Cathal, as a republican I believe we are now occupied by two foreign powers not one. And as an old republican I give my blessing to young men and women to resist both by violence. I pass my little torch to them in love with my nation. T

      @@shredder9536 i fought in the north for nearly 30yrs, I knew Sand's didn't like him much, I knew O hara and a lot of them,. whilst we were doing that the freestaters, for money and personal power invited a New occupying power into the south and surrendered even that partial independence less than 60 yrs after it was achieved because they were corrupt to begin with and never represented the nation or implemented the constitution or proclamation of 1916, they represented their own interests ahead of the national good. They were as delighted as the English to see 1916 over more delighted to have the civil
      War and suppress republican's and even more delighted to sell the nation to the EU and get big paychecks less than 60 years later. So after 600 years of conflict with England they surrendered their small power to another foreign entity. Very good republican's don't you think? Cattle rustlers and crooks all of them. T

      @@thomasmccarthy9758 yes the Free State was created as a region of the Empire and just fell back into another Empire. That's what happens when people fall short of full independence or settle for less. The Anti Treaty Republicans were right 100 years ago to try to keep going

    I'm a newcomer to your channel and have been getting up to date with previous entries. Thank you for your detailed and, in my opinion, fair treatment of the events and personalities in the conflicts.

      Hi Joe, thanks very much for checking out the channel. Maintaining balance or addressing figures and events in a different light to how they are usually handled is a major goal of mine, glad you find the treatment to be fair so far.

    Okay i finally caught up haha. Just saying again, i think all this stuff is super interesting and a great way to learn about it. As an american i can tell you that nobody knows a thing here about any of this (me included, really) with maybe the exception of people who watch irish youtubers religiously lol. Anyway now that i'm finally here i have to ask, what are you saying at the very beginning and end of each video in what i'm guessing is irish?

    • @TheIrishNationLives
      @TheIrishNationLives  4 роки тому +3

      Fair play for going through all of them, glad you enjoyed them! At the start I basically say "Hello/Greetings to all of you, my friends." "A chara" is "my friend" but also a formal way of starting letters or emails in Ireland and is sometimes treated like "comrade". At the end I say "my friends, thank you for joining me on The Irish Nation Lives, goodbye for now/until we meet again.

    Like the story of Michael Dwyer and Sam mccallister
    Or the battle of viniger hill

      There is Irish decent from the name however it originally came from the Normans who invaded Britain so any Irish person with the last name terry , most likely their Irish ancestors fell victim to English slavery..
