    As an Irish person this is good to see, but one slight flaw. Ireland officially became a republic in 1949 (essentially became a republic in 1937 after Bunreacht na hEireann), in 1922 we became a Dominion, similar to Canada. In fact this is part of the reason why the Irish civil war in 1922 happened, many felt that the republic they fought for had been betrayed

    Oh my god as an Irish person I’ve been dying for episodes on the revolutions! Would love to see a Michael Collins centered episode going into the Anglo-Irish Treaty and the Civil War!
  • I'm so happy as an irish person to see our history animated by you guys
  • @ColdClock
    As a person from the UK, I'm happy to see Irish history (like this and the potato famine) presented here as it's an important part of our history that was not taught when I was at school.
  • "As down the glen one Easter morn', To a city fair rode I. There armed lines of marching men In squadrons passed me by. No pipe did hum, No battle drum, Did sound its loud tattoo, But the Angelus Bells O'er the Liffey swells, Rang out in the foggy dew." -'The Foggy Dew', Irish Song about the Easter Rising, First Verse
  • 8:30 Roger Casement is well known in Peru. He stood up for the rights of indigenous people being exploited in the Peruvian rainforst by evil landowners. In fact he is the main character in the historical novel "El Sueño del Celta" by Peruvian novelist Mario Vargas Llosa. It's worth pointing out that said novel came out a few days after Mario was awarded the Literature Nobel Prize. To this day he is the only Peruvian to have won said prize.

    If you're ever in Dublin I STRONGLY encourage you to visit the GPO they do tours telling you all about the rising and you can still see the bullet holes that were never repaired on the front of the building
  • @Leo-eg3cc
    I've been watching extra history for years now I love you guys videos they've taught me a lot of things
  • Dublin was an amazing city to visit. It's so eerie to walk through where the Rising happened, and still see the bullet holes. Chilling. Exhilarating. As my Irish Granpa would say: "Erin go Braugh!"
  • @jubbos9708
    I just spent the last 2 hours studying for my Irish history test and came to youtube for a cool down before actually starting it. Found my way here somehow... learning more Irish history
  • @Buhyeu
    Ah an Ireland history video, nice to hear more about my history
  • Great video as always! One small thing ireland would not become a republic after 6 years it would become the Irish free state a dominion of the British empire like Canada and South Africa. Ireland would officially become a republic in 1949
  • From the Battle of Blair Mountain to the Easter Rising ? This is awesome ! Would love to see a mini episode on maybe the Austrian Civil War since we are going from uprising to uprising.
  • L love the Series on the Potato Famine and how you guys talk about it great knowing million of People who love history know a little but more because of your guys and now people around the world can watch this series of new episodes

  • @IC3XR
    Rewatching this playlist, I must say: I have nothing but respect for the Irish
  • @Kitsume_c0s
    I'm part Irish and have been trying to get back in tiuch with the history and culture. I've been feeling like a fraud for not knowing anything about my ancestors. My lovely partner suggested your account. Thank you<3
  • Nice. Some more on British imperial history! Cecil Rhodes, the Mau Mau rebellion, the Morant Bay Rebellion & Baptist War in Jamaica.
