Such as the troubles and why it happened.. Along with the leaders of the rising.. The reason for them.. and how they ended, and what there affects were.. As this is a video on the history of our nation ya no

    I am an Irishman and a man who is constant student of Irish history and Irish lore... I suggest you do a study of the Banshee... According to what I have read and researched, there was a tribe of blond haired tall blue eyed people on the Island of Ireland before the Celts visited ( they are attributed as the people ' the sidhe', who build the Newgrange passage tomb in county Meath which is estimated to have been built in approximately 3200 bC; believed to be a sun worshiping civilization; it is believed that the Celts came to Ireland between 500 bC and 1000 bC ).. The Celts called them the Feara (sp)describing a people with light coloured hair... The word Feara (sp) went down in myth when the Celts slaughtered the indigenous people and in some cases copulated with their women.. According to my research, the Celts buried the blond haired people in mass graves.. Feara became pronounced as Fairy, and there is a belief that the so called fairy forts in Ireland are mass graves.. to this day there is a superstition that it is unlucky to enter a fairy fort or remove anything from the fort.. Farmers in Ireland who have these forts on their land will plough all the land around the fort but will not dig beneath the earth in the ring... The Feara became known as the Sidhe in Celtic mythology and the saying went that when a man of Celtic origin who was related to the people who slaughtered the Sidhe, that the woman from the fairy fort would be heard screaming in an unworldly fashion celebrating the oncoming death of the man who heard her screams... Her cry is meant to be heard by Irish people who have the prefix 'O' 'Mac' and 'Ni' before their surnames... Bean (Ban) is the irish word for woman, and Shee is the word used to describe people who were of the Sidhe people... thus the myth of the Banshee...

      Irish people heard about Mexico, they thought it would be a better place as it was also Catholic and was more welcoming of immigrants.

    Very well researched and simply presented. For a bit of extra education, the residents of Northern Ireland who are descended mainly from protestant-British settlers have begun to refer to themselves in recent years as “Northern Irish”. The non-British NI residents like myself who remain loyal to the prospect of a United Ireland free of British occupation or rule still refer to ourselves as Irish so it isn’t the Irish fight ourselves so much as Irish vs Descendants of British occupants. That’s not to say that all Protestants living here feel loyal to the Union, especially younger generations.

    Can you please add the soundtrack you used for the video. Specifically looking for the song that starts around 4:10 with a flute and something else

    I as an english person don't have a problem with irish unification as long as it's what ulster wants. Britian would not have a land border so leaving the eu would be easier and there would hopefully be less irish resentment toward britain two birds one stone.

      Agreed. Everyone on both sides seem to forget that the choice is up the North

    Have you done Canada yet? You should do it! Or Australia. Also your style looks a lot like the old flash game riddle school

    Would you ever cover eastern China/ far middle East like I feel those areas are neglected in history on youtube. I really like your format and it would be awesome to learn a little about the area
