It wasn’t really united tho, there were still kings in Ireland who ruled their own area and didn’t listen to him. They acknowledged him as the high king but it wasn’t a united country.

You could've added foreign Irish territories outside of the Island. Like wales and cornwall in the 5th century was conquered by Ireland. South Wales, Isle Of Man, Faroe Islands, Western Scotland and Iceland was Irish territory in the 7th century. The Caribbean Island of Montserrat in the mid 17th century.
@@cjon6898 Its history nonetheless. And invading and conquering is something very nation has done, obviously we know better nowadays but back then it was just normal. The problem only comes in when w country invades and treats the natives like dirt. Back then it was army vs army apart from the Vikings and later on in history the English.
@@cjon6898 'what little colonial history we have'. Lol, you clearly have no idea how deeply involved in empire Ireland was. Irish soldiers, Irish colonial administrators. Even wolf tone proposed to the Crown his setting up of a new colony in the americas. Don't Bury your head in the sand when it comes to Irish history
Never recovered, that's beyond brutal, probably a unique case in Europe since the 19th was the only century of real demographic growth in Europe. In the 19th century, Britain multiplied its population almost by 4. It halved for Ireland.
From the wikipedia page: "Edward Bruce created havoc in the colonised parts of Ireland, and might be said to have nearly brought the settlement to its knees. But notwithstanding this, he failed in the end, and with him the attempt to create a kingdom of Ireland and drive out the settlers ceased. From then on the Gaelic revival failed to find a national leader. However, he succeeded in preventing aid for the conquest of Scotland being arriving from Ireland which was probably the main purpose of the invasion. Its impulse remained local down to the end of the Middle Ages; its success was measured in the innumerable battles fought by local chieftains or confederations of chieftains. So while everywhere the Gaelic recovery of lost territories was remarkable, there was never any serious attempt made to unite Gaelic Ireland or to bring about the downfall of the English government in Ireland and the end of the colony."
Well Ireland can't even afford to have the current population now like they can't even feed this much people I don't think they would be able to afford the ammout of people before famine
My parents were from Mid Kerry and Inishowen, Donegal. Impressed that the lands of both Mac Carthaigh Mor and Tir Chonaill held out for some 430 years after the Normans arrival before coming under the crowns rule.

Munster didnt control Ireland. The south of Ireland is the Munster and is just a region inside Ireland. Irelands system back in the dark ages was complicated but basically it was a united country with the laws being the Brehon Law, a High King of irrland to rule over Ireland ( unlike foreign kings at the time the Irish king could not change laws ). Then there was many chieftains who controlled there clans region, these were the main enforcers of the Brehon Law. The clans werr allowed to fight between each other for more land and this happened frequently. This is a simplified history of Ireland... Ireland first came into around 400 AD at the latest and stayed like this for hundreds of years. The Normans and England occupied a small portion of Ireland around dublin from arund 1200 AD to around 1600 AD. Ireland regained control from 1641-1650 England controlled Ireland from 1650 until 1922. In 1922 Ireland became free again except for a small portion of northern Ireland is part of Britain.
Yep. Noob Island. But it is the most fun area to play as in my Opinion. In my current game Norway owns the top half of Ireland and then me the other half. I have a claim on Navarra so I might abandon Ireland cause Mine and Norways relations are not good.
Rónán Ó Corráin celts came from Middle East 4000 years ago. They are long lost cousins, plus the Arabs never destroyed their ethnic ties and stole their land
@Celtic Revival / Adfywiad Celtaidd That’s somewhat true but the British didn’t really had anyway of stopping the spread of the potato famine and wasn’t their fault that they didn’t have technology at the time to counteract it... every european country was affected by the potato famine but Ireland was hit the hardest mainly due to the fact that 95% of the island is farm based and wasn’t heavily industrialised like it’s other neighbours plus the common dish for Irish people at the time was mainly potato’s anyway so yeah 🥔.
@@XRoyalStampedeX Not true. The majority of farms were held by tenant farmers. The land itself was owned by British Crown supporters, who had been gifted the lands for favours done for the Crown. These absentee landlords were at liberty to reduce the size of the small holdings. And did so. Throughout the entire period of the Famine, Ireland was exporting enormous quantities of food. In the magazine History Ireland (1997, issue 5, pp. 32-36), Christine Kinealy, a Great Hunger scholar, lecturer, and Drew University professor, relates her findings: Almost 4,000 vessels carried food from Ireland to the ports of Bristol, Glasgow, Liverpool, and London during 1847, when 400,000 Irish men, women, and children died of starvation and related diseases. She also writes that Irish exports of calves, livestock (except pigs), bacon, and ham actually increased during the Famine. This food was shipped from the most famine-stricken parts of Ireland: Ballina, Ballyshannon, Bantry, Dingle, Killala, Kilrush, Limerick, Sligo, Tralee, and Westport. A wide variety of commodities left Ireland during 1847, including peas, beans, onions, rabbits, salmon, oysters, herring, lard, honey, tongues, animal skins, rags, shoes, soap, glue, and seed. One of the most shocking export figures concern butter. Butter was shipped in firkins, each one holding 9 imperial gallons; 41 litres. In the first nine months of 1847, 56,557 firkins (509,010 imperial gallons; 2,314,000 litres) were exported from Ireland to Bristol, and 34,852 firkins (313,670 imperial gallons; 1,426,000 litres) were shipped to Liverpool, which correlates with 822,681 imperial gallons (3,739,980 litres) of butter exported to England from Ireland during nine months of the worst year of the Famine.[109] The problem in Ireland was not lack of food, which was plentiful, but the price of it, which was beyond the reach of the poor. The small holdings were not capable of this form of production, as crop rotation is very difficult on small tracts of land. In 1845, 24% of all Irish tenant farms were of 0.4-2 hectares (1-5 acres) in size, while 40% were of 2-6 hectares (5-15 acres). Holdings were so small that no crop other than potatoes would suffice to feed a family. Shortly before the famine, the British government reported that poverty was so widespread that one-third of all Irish small holdings could not support the tenant families after rent was paid; the families survived only by earnings as seasonal migrant labour in England and Scotland.[39] Following the famine, reforms were implemented making it illegal to further divide land holdings. In addition, the tenant farmers were still required to pay rent on the farms. When the crops failed, so did their only source of income. Some landlords were sympathetic to their plights. Others nor so much. (“What the devil do we care about you or your black potatoes? It was not us that made them black. You will get two days to pay the rent, and if you don’t you know the consequences.”) Evictions became increasingly common. There was little sympathy in British government circles to "the Irish problem." Charles Trevelyn, who was secretary of the Treasury in England and had responsibility for famine relief, had an [un]sympathetic attitude to the starving Irish: “The only way to prevent the people from becoming habitually dependent on Government is to bring the food depots to a close. The uncertainty about the new crop only makes this more necessary“. Not everybody looked the other way, though. The Quakers in America raised more than $200,000 in relief for the starving Irish. The Choctaw Indians, just sixteen years after they had survived The Trail of Tears, sent a generous donation to help their “brothers and sisters in need.” Sir Robert Peel, as British prime minister, made several attempts to provide assistance. Ultimately, however, he was defeated in parliament, and his successor was less sympathetic to the plight of his British subjects in Ireland (Ireland was, at that time, under the control, and protection, of the British Crown). Not everyone viewed the loss of so many lives as a calamity, as the preface to the Irish Census of 1851 makes clear: “…we feel it will be gratifying to your Excellency to find that the population has been diminished in so remarkable a manner by famine, disease and emigration between 1841 and 1851, and has been since decreasing, the results of the Irish census of 1851 are, on the whole, satisfactory, demonstrating as they do the general advancement of the country. “ So your assertion that millions of Irish people died because Ireland wasn’t as “heavily industrialised like it’s other neighbours” simply displays your ignorance of this appalling period in Ireland’s history.
@@Gia1911Logous Yes, but in truth our current government is no more sympathetic to the plight of the most disadvantaged in our society than our former rulers. The British are not to blame, indifference to suffering is.
Between death from disease and starvation and mass emigration to escape it, it devastated the population. The thing was there was enough food but basically it was all shipped out to be sold off for landlord's profit or feed the landlords themselves.
The Great Potato Famine lead to the deaths of over a million and another million emigrating. At the time, potatoes were the primary food for most poor Irish farmers, especially in the west.
Ireland's population increased 4x from the point of British involvement and was still 3 time that from the start of eastern involvement. Yes it could have been 30 million but even today Ireland population keeps leaving.
I have to say, seeing Ireland's population plummet due to the Great Hunger breaks my heart. The horror of starvation in a land from which countless tonnes of food was being extracted. The English *crucified* our nation. We must never forget!
@@godlovesyou1995 it was completely the fault of the English, only clueless dopes who comment on things they don't understand would say otherwise. England exported a superabundance of food under armed guard while the population starved to death.
2:03 Richard IV was briefly King of England after his uncle Richard III was killed at the Battle of Bosworth. His short time on the throne was wiped from history by Henry Tudor who ascended after Richard III's untimely death at the hands of his inept nephew, Edmund Blackadder.
As a Mediterranean person, Northwest Europeans have some of the most resilient soldiers, unique music, greatest architecture, deeply connected histories, ancient traditional customs/festivals and beautiful landscapes I've ever seen. I apologise for the way my Mediterranean people treated you in the past. We are all ONE! ☝️
@Paul You're welcome my friend. Some of the ancient Mediterranean civilizations treated or viewed Northwest European tribes the same way the British and Spanish viewed/treated the tribes from the Americas and Australia. If people viewed other people as having the same amount of worth as they do, most of this conquering crap wouldn't happen, unfortunately greed would still play a part in conquests.
Fun fact: Ottomans' helped Irish people in the Great Famine and another fact is they wan'na give 50k pounds but the Queen Victoria gave 'em 10k pounds. Because of this Queen refused the help and Ottomans give just 10k pounds for Irish people
I used census data where possible, but obviously the Medieval and Ancient data is just based on estimations by demographers. Any population figure before about 1700 has to be taken with a pinch of salt.
@@godlovesyou1995 Irish people never agreed to be a part of the British Empire and they've been treated poorly by them, thus they want to be free of the UK, what is so hard to understand?

Very interesting. Ireland has been through a lot throughout its history. Very intriguing.

I really like Ireland when I was playing CK2…
Yep. Noob Island. But it is the most fun area to play as in my Opinion. In my current game Norway owns the top half of Ireland and then me the other half. I have a claim on Navarra so I might abandon Ireland cause Mine and Norways relations are not good.

Somehow, the FitzGeralds still remained... where "Gerald" comes from Germanic peoples.
Idiot
No germanics, just arabs and africans👌
Rónán Ó Corráin celts came from Middle East 4000 years ago. They are long lost cousins, plus the Arabs never destroyed their ethnic ties and stole their land

Nice one, can you do one of these types of videos about Central Asia next please or sometime in the future?
High king of Ireland? How come his reign was so short?
He died during a thing called the battle of Clontarf
He was killed in his tent during the battle of Clontarf against the Vikings
Damn, shame that never happened. Imagine how history would've played out with a unified Ireland a thousand years ago.

Irish population when there is no potato:
Not stonks
@Celtic Revival / Adfywiad Celtaidd Similar thing happened in Ukraine under Stalin and India under Churchill.
@Celtic Revival / Adfywiad Celtaidd That’s somewhat true but the British didn’t really had anyway of stopping the spread of the potato famine and wasn’t their fault that they didn’t have technology at the time to counteract it... every european country was affected by the potato famine but Ireland was hit the hardest mainly due to the fact that 95% of the island is farm based and wasn’t heavily industrialised like it’s other neighbours plus the common dish for Irish people at the time was mainly potato’s anyway so yeah 🥔.

Not true. The majority of farms were held by tenant farmers. The land itself was owned by British Crown supporters, who had been gifted the lands for favours done for the Crown. These absentee landlords were at liberty to reduce the size of the small holdings. And did so.
Throughout the entire period of the Famine, Ireland was exporting enormous quantities of food. In the magazine History Ireland (1997, issue 5, pp. 32-36), Christine Kinealy, a Great Hunger scholar, lecturer, and Drew University professor, relates her findings: Almost 4,000 vessels carried food from Ireland to the ports of Bristol, Glasgow, Liverpool, and London during 1847, when 400,000 Irish men, women, and children died of starvation and related diseases. She also writes that Irish exports of calves, livestock (except pigs), bacon, and ham actually increased during the Famine. This food was shipped from the most famine-stricken parts of Ireland: Ballina, Ballyshannon, Bantry, Dingle, Killala, Kilrush, Limerick, Sligo, Tralee, and Westport. A wide variety of commodities left Ireland during 1847, including peas, beans, onions, rabbits, salmon, oysters, herring, lard, honey, tongues, animal skins, rags, shoes, soap, glue, and seed.
One of the most shocking export figures concern butter. Butter was shipped in firkins, each one holding 9 imperial gallons; 41 litres. In the first nine months of 1847, 56,557 firkins (509,010 imperial gallons; 2,314,000 litres) were exported from Ireland to Bristol, and 34,852 firkins (313,670 imperial gallons; 1,426,000 litres) were shipped to Liverpool, which correlates with 822,681 imperial gallons (3,739,980 litres) of butter exported to England from Ireland during nine months of the worst year of the Famine.[109] The problem in Ireland was not lack of food, which was plentiful, but the price of it, which was beyond the reach of the poor.
The small holdings were not capable of this form of production, as crop rotation is very difficult on small tracts of land. In 1845, 24% of all Irish tenant farms were of 0.4-2 hectares (1-5 acres) in size, while 40% were of 2-6 hectares (5-15 acres). Holdings were so small that no crop other than potatoes would suffice to feed a family. Shortly before the famine, the British government reported that poverty was so widespread that one-third of all Irish small holdings could not support the tenant families after rent was paid; the families survived only by earnings as seasonal migrant labour in England and Scotland.[39] Following the famine, reforms were implemented making it illegal to further divide land holdings.
In addition, the tenant farmers were still required to pay rent on the farms. When the crops failed, so did their only source of income. Some landlords were sympathetic to their plights. Others nor so much. (“What the devil do we care about you or your black potatoes? It was not us that made them black. You will get two days to pay the rent, and if you don’t you know the consequences.”) Evictions became increasingly common.
There was little sympathy in British government circles to "the Irish problem." Charles Trevelyn, who was secretary of the Treasury in England and had responsibility for famine relief, had an [un]sympathetic attitude to the starving Irish: “The only way to prevent the people from becoming habitually dependent on Government is to bring the food depots to a close. The uncertainty about the new crop only makes this more necessary“.
Not everybody looked the other way, though. The Quakers in America raised more than $200,000 in relief for the starving Irish. The Choctaw Indians, just sixteen years after they had survived The Trail of Tears, sent a generous donation to help their “brothers and sisters in need.”
Sir Robert Peel, as British prime minister, made several attempts to provide assistance. Ultimately, however, he was defeated in parliament, and his successor was less sympathetic to the plight of his British subjects in Ireland (Ireland was, at that time, under the control, and protection, of the British Crown).
Not everyone viewed the loss of so many lives as a calamity, as the preface to the Irish Census of 1851 makes clear:
“…we feel it will be gratifying to your Excellency to find that the population has been diminished in so remarkable a manner by famine, disease and emigration between 1841 and 1851, and has been since decreasing, the results of the Irish census of 1851 are, on the whole, satisfactory, demonstrating as they do the general advancement of the country. “
So your assertion that millions of Irish people died because Ireland wasn’t as “heavily industrialised like it’s other neighbours” simply displays your ignorance of this appalling period in Ireland’s history.
stinks
@@Gia1911Logous Yes, but in truth our current government is no more sympathetic to the plight of the most disadvantaged in our society than our former rulers. The British are not to blame, indifference to suffering is.

Edit: Jesus Christ. I didn't know the Irish potato famine caused that much devastation to the island.
The Irish Potato Faime
and the mass migration to america i think ....
Great Famine
Between death from disease and starvation and mass emigration to escape it, it devastated the population. The thing was there was enough food but basically it was all shipped out to be sold off for landlord's profit or feed the landlords themselves.
@@rodrigoibanezcastrillo2783 That's because of the famine tho

I think he just made a simple mistake there saying as how there never was a Richard IV.

Pretty sad seeing the population drop right down from the 1840's.
Just one of the plethora of war atrocities by a certain nation now a vassal to the USA.

The Great Potato Famine lead to the deaths of over a million and another million emigrating. At the time, potatoes were the primary food for most poor Irish farmers, especially in the west.

Irish population could be 30.000.000 without english intervention like cromwell and the famine
Ireland's population increased 4x from the point of British involvement and was still 3 time that from the start of eastern involvement. Yes it could have been 30 million but even today Ireland population keeps leaving.
Nice and smooth

I have to say, seeing Ireland's population plummet due to the Great Hunger breaks my heart.
The horror of starvation in a land from which countless tonnes of food was being extracted.
The English *crucified* our nation. We must never forget!
Yes we need more bigots like you who live in the past!
@@Waterford1992 haha so true, even if it was the English people's fault (which it probs wasnt) its time to forget
@@godlovesyou1995 it was completely the fault of the English, only clueless dopes who comment on things they don't understand would say otherwise. England exported a superabundance of food under armed guard while the population starved to death.
By that same measure Ireland's population shot up with English involvement and remained 3 times the population from when they arrived.

Looking forward to the update.
As a Mediterranean person, Northwest Europeans have some of the most resilient soldiers, unique music, greatest architecture, deeply connected histories, ancient traditional customs/festivals and beautiful landscapes I've ever seen. I apologise for the way my Mediterranean people treated you in the past. We are all ONE! ☝️
@Paul You're welcome my friend. Some of the ancient Mediterranean civilizations treated or viewed Northwest European tribes the same way the British and Spanish viewed/treated the tribes from the Americas and Australia. If people viewed other people as having the same amount of worth as they do, most of this conquering crap wouldn't happen, unfortunately greed would still play a part in conquests.
Beautiful score
Fun fact: Ottomans' helped Irish people in the Great Famine and another fact is they wan'na give 50k pounds but the Queen Victoria gave 'em 10k pounds. Because of this Queen refused the help and Ottomans give just 10k pounds for Irish people

I used census data where possible, but obviously the Medieval and Ancient data is just based on estimations by demographers. Any population figure before about 1700 has to be taken with a pinch of salt.

The population stat is very interesting. Clear when you read "Irish population has yet to attain its numbers before the famine." Damn.
You pretty much skipped over the Williamite Wars of the 1690s and the 1798 rebellion.
All the videos on this channel assume a date of 31st December, and by 31st December 1798 the rebellion had ended.
