    Very informative and tastefully done; I enjoy your accent. Nice to hear something of the O'Donnell's; my ancestor was Michael, arrived in USA after flight of the earls in 1600's. I'm more than Irish now, but my independent streak reflects this part of my heritage well. Glad you're prospering doing what you like.

    Great video, I love your videos and I love your channel. I really like learning about these areas of Irish history that I had never heard of before. Especially because I know very little about Medieval Irish history. Something I was curious about is, I recently read an article which said "The 16th-century Irish peasant was the worst-off in Europe. The Gaelic overlords were reducing the peasants to total subservience" and suggested that the Irish Gaels were better off under English rule. Since Medieval to Tudor Ireland is your area of expertise I would be eager to see your opinions on it.

    • @IrishMedievalHistory

      I wouldn't say Tudor Ireland is my field at all. Am a RUclipsr looking to point people the right now, but I would be lying if I said any field is my field. I could look to find a answer for you and I can give you my view if you like.

    • @Clans_Dynasties
      @Clans_Dynasties 2 года назад +1

      taking out the consideration that obviously every generation tends to benefit better than the previous one due to many factors for example technology and trade as rights go the Gaels suffered more in the Tudor period as Gaels, If they anglicised then to a degree they benefitted by gaining more rights but The introduction of the feudal system of land tenure and land inheritance into the districts of Ireland did alot to break up the clan system basically turning potential strong cadet families or younger sons of chiefs into commoners with no political influence or inheritance, since the clan system was more social that feudalism, the laws against being either Catholic or Gaelic seriously hindered most, if the article is distinguishing between Gael and an Irishman then i'd agree.

    Loving the content, both from you and the guests. The audio quality, especially the levels and differences takes has come along way, but it still could do with an extra pass to avoid hard cuts. The streams are very time dependent. The late at night ones would need to be on a Fri/Sat for me to stay up late. I know timezones are a pain to work around.

    Having a clan name doesn't necessarily mean direct descent from the chieftain or king. People adopted a chiefs name as part of the clan. So if your name is o Donnell it doesn't automatically mean your are decended from Hugh

    4:21 that map is not very accurate , McDonnell weren't in Ireland at the time breifne hadn't existed for over 150 year's, there was West and East briefne which even United didn't even go that large ,no mention of the rump kingdom of Connacht,No mention of oriel, Duchy of leinster is pure fantastiy as The Duke if leinster is off by 3-400 year's it was still under Irish control with the king's of leinster still hanging on,macjordans were a small vassal of the Mac William uachter Burke's (mayo Burke's) as the Burke's we're dividend into 2(really 3) with the clanricade controlling Galway Eastof Connemara minus the North East of The county.

      Bless your eye sight. If the map that I used to point out where the pale is and where the North and South of Ireland is and later on where the O'Donnell is. Then I don't think I did bad over all working with time, the RUclips algorithm and the lack of books in Japan with no pay. Maybe when I get paid for doing this I can get someone to make me a nice medieval map.
