In official documents between Ireland and the UK the term "British isles" is never used, "these islands" is used instead. British Isles quite a contentious term that Ireland doesn't officially recognise as it's considered a political term for the islands not a geographical one
It is a Natural formation, It's Volcanic basalt it how it forms.
Nature crazy
the Irish spent the better part of 800 years trying not to be British.....the term British Isles is not widely used in the ROI,............. :)
Interesting... So what term do normal people use?
If they use any at all.
@@NerdyCompetence over here & over there.....
@@tomhayes750d&d hither thither
@@NerdyCompetence These islands or britain and ireland
We didn’t need to try, seeing as we aren’t British. Some people in Ireland try very hard to BE British but that’s another story
We are absolutely not in the British Isles. Before there was ever a Britain, there was an Ireland, with a completely different culture and language.
Thanks... Yes, I did learn this after I saw the video. I'm glad to know this.
Can you react to animated history of Germany part 1 is kinda eh as it kinda speeds threw a things but his part 2 he gone into more depth on early German history and he plans to do future videos on Germany
I will look into it...
Ireland is not part of the British isles. It can be clustered in with the other surrounding islands, but we don't call that archipelago "the British isles".
The Giants Causeway is a natural formation but the ancient myth was it was made by a giant who wanted to walk to Scotland to see his girl. Which is where the name comes from.
Yeah! Call them the Northwest European Islands
Came across this vid randomly. You should come here to Ireland. I've wanted to go to Denmark and Sweden for years too. I've watched plenty of Danish and Swedish shows haha.
Only in the british education system ireland was around thosands of years before the brits where born
Really the Romans were calling them British same time called people Hibernia Scots
if you didnt know in the 1840's we had a famine in ireland due to british oppression that caused 2 million deaths and 2 million to leave on prision boats and coffin ships for australia and america. The population of ireland still hasnt recovered today to what it was in 1840. If we didnt have a famine its estimated that our population would have followed the same growth curve as poland so we would have about 30 million people instead of just 8.
Yes, I do know that.
It's something we learn about in school, especially here in my part of Scandinavia. Large parts of Europe were affected by this potato plague. We also had a lot of people who emigrated out because of starvation and poverty. It must have been horrible for them.
But of course Ireland and Scotland were the hardest hit by this disaster.
The giants cause way is natural, formed by volcanoes many many years ago. The mythology around it is that a giant built it to go to Scotland to fight a giant there
Thanks. Yes, I did learn about it after I had watched the video.
Ireland has such a love hate with the language. I can’t speak my own language, being in Ireland I feel so sad about that
That's a bummer, mate.
Good video, if you are interested in more Irish cultural things you should check out hurling or some of the history with the famine some crazy things there 😂😂
Thanks. I will look into it.
the giants causeway is natural stone but legend has it it was built by a giant 1000s of years ago to fight a different giant in scotland. really cool tail you should look it up
Seans Bar actually specialises in whiskey rather than beer
The Giant Causeway in county Antrim is natural.
Ireland 🇮🇪 is NOT part of the British Isles....you've learned a bit of history from me now.
Thanks... I did learn this right after I saw the video.
Giant's Causeway was actually made by a giant, by the name of Finn. He made it to be able to visit his girlfriend in Scotland.
No, it's natural.
😂😂
"British Isles" comes from the Pretani, a tribe in Britain that a Greek explorer named. He called them the Pretanic Isles as a result. This was forgotten for over a thousand years until the 16th century when British cartographers rediscovered it, coincidentally when Britain was increasing it's control over Ireland, and found it a convenient term to use to call both islands. It has never been used in Ireland by Irish people.
Fast forward a few centuries and Ireland finally has it's independence, albeit an incomplete one with the partition creating Northern Ireland, and the new state immediately disavows any use or recognition of the term. Fast forward a few decades and British governments have started avoiding it's use in official documents and actually tell their ministers not to use it.
Why? Well, as the Wikipedia article on the issue states, while the term has evolved to become a geographical one, in Ireland it's anything but. In Ireland it can't help but have political overtones, denoting a British imperialistic claim over the island that as you can understand, Irish people have an issue with.
Britain has stopped using it. Ireland as a state actively denies it's applicability and won't acknowledge it, and the term has never been used in Ireland anyway.
Try telling people on the Internet that, though. They'll insist that because they grew up seeing it as a geographical term that everyone else should. Well, not everyone does, and a huge amount of people who live on the islands do not.
And I think the opinions of the people living here hold more sway on what the place should be called than people living abroad. Try telling that to some of them, though. Americans especially. They get all uppity about it.
I enjoyed your reaction to this video. I watched it before and other people's reactions as they learned more about Ireland, you have very good knowledge of these Islands
Yes, you should try Guinness, there is a method for pouring it from a can, so you might need to watch a video on how it's poured to get your best first pint. it's my favourite drink, it is of course best served in Ireland. so visit if you can
British Isle, the term is not merely geographical as the UK Ordnance Survey says it is, But it has been around for 400 years...
Brytish Iles in the English language is dated 1577 in a work by John Dee. Today, this name is seen as carrying imperialist overtones although it is still commonly used. Other names used to describe the islands include the Anglo-Celtic Isles, Atlantic archipelago (a term coined by the historian J. G. A. Pocock in 1975), British-Irish Isles, Britain and Ireland, UK and Ireland, and British Isles and Ireland. I prefer the latter.
Owing to political and national associations with the word British, the Government of Ireland does not use the term British Isles and in documents drawn up jointly between the British and Irish governments, the archipelago is referred to simply as "these islands".
Nonetheless, fun video, I will have to check out your others, as I also enjoy watching videos about other countries.
For Ireland: check out Irish Hurling, Dancing, Music, Darry Girls, Father Ted, etc
For the UK: check out Time Team for history with Tony Robinson, who is also in many great shows about the UK, they have the best documentaries (and/or watch Blackadder) The Two Ronnies for comedy

Thanks for the info and suggestions. I will check them out.
OK, it’s the Anglo Celtic Isles or these islands or the British and Irish islands. There are not two countries on the island the six counties which has never been officially a state or country recognize by other countries. It was literally created to keep the protestants in control so the Catholics could never be a majority. The Irish Catholics could not vote did not have access to housing or jobs. So saying it’s two countries is wrong saying it’s part of the British Isles is wrong. The reality is nameschange and the Irish do not recognize British Isles whatsoever, which is a colonial term showing possession. The Irish have spent a better part of 800 years not to be part of the British colonial Isles.
Even the potato famine was not a famine it was a genocide. If you do go to Ireland, don’t call it the British Isles.
Thanks for the comment. Quite interesting.
The term the British Isles is an outdated Geographical term that is not recognised by the Irish Government nor by the Majority of Irish people living in Ireland.
