There is a great band called The Wolfe Tones... obviously named after the Irish revolutionary. They play great rebel music. One can learn a lot about the struggles and history of Ireland through their music.
Hahaha thats awesome. They play in my small and otherwise irrelevant home town Keansburg, NJ, USA. Its always one of the most festive days of the year for us. I over did the drinking one year and tried to hand each band member a $20 bill. Not one of them took it. Fine gentlemen!
my mum's old house was at the bottom of vinegar hill. her uncle paddy also had a house there and her cousin Jimmy still lives in a house on the same road. I was born in London but was christened in St senens on the shannon
A very good historical novel about this subject is Thomas Flanagan's "The Year of the French". I've never seen the TV series that was based on the book, but the novel itself is very well written.
I know you only had 3 minutes but the Battle of Ballynahinch? Battle of Saintfield? In Ulster and beyond many Irish Rebellion leaders were Protestant Presbyterian ministers. Many were hung for their rebellion. Good job in covering this significant rebellion in 3 minutes. Best wishes from the Belfast Castlereagh hills.
That's absolutely correct. Too bad that this aspect of Ulster protestant history has been airbrushed by Unionist society today . Brave men deserve their memories preserved. I'm a Catholic from the Republic btw.
Hi Conlaiaria. The problem of 'airbrushing' Irish history by possible Church, State, or Orange or Black, Protestant, historians, was made worse by the teaching offered in State schools. Here school governors reckoned that their students would be wanting to go to 'superior' English and Scottish Universities. For this to happen, English school curricula needed to be studied in State grammars. Thus the set curricula for O and A levels in N Ir. State schools excluded anything of Ireland, in history, geography, English literature/poetry, art etc. If you hadn't passed English Board examinations, mainland universities would not allow you entry. Net result most Protestants of my era learnt nothing of Ireland at school. Being brought up a Protestant, my knowledge of Irish history has been self taught, after I left school and Uni. Having left grammar school decades ago I am honestly not sure if things have changed substantially for the better in State schools. Best wishes from the Belfast Castlereagh hills.

1:48 - Mis-spoken - I believe it should be 1796, not 1786
Very interesting video, thanks.
3:56 - The Acts of Union were “passed” in 1800, not 1801 (but yes indeed, they took effect on 1st Jan 1801).
Happy new year
Thanks

6 30,000 people died in 1798 rebellion as they declared a Wexford Republic
7 Property-owners such as Gardiner in Dublin fought in militias to protect the Kingdom
8 Parliament in Dublin voted by big majority in 1799 AGAINST disbanding
9 Parliament in Dublin voted in 1800 FOR disbanding itself - bribed hugely, as mentioned in the video
10 Republican and pro-European ideas took a back seat till Wellington helped Catholics with rights after he was Prime Minister
