    I am an Irishman and a man who is constant student of Irish history and Irish lore... I suggest you do a study of the Banshee... According to what I have read and researched, there was a tribe of blond haired tall blue eyed people on the Island of Ireland before the Celts visited ( they are attributed as the people ' the sidhe', who build the Newgrange passage tomb in county Meath which is estimated to have been built in approximately 3200 bC; believed to be a sun worshiping civilization; it is believed that the Celts came to Ireland between 500 bC and 1000 bC ).. The Celts called them the Feara (sp)describing a people with light coloured hair... The word Feara (sp) went down in myth when the Celts slaughtered the indigenous people and in some cases copulated with their women.. According to my research, the Celts buried the blond haired people in mass graves.. Feara became pronounced as Fairy, and there is a belief that the so called fairy forts in Ireland are mass graves.. to this day there is a superstition that it is unlucky to enter a fairy fort or remove anything from the fort.. Farmers in Ireland who have these forts on their land will plough all the land around the fort but will not dig beneath the earth in the ring... The Feara became known as the Sidhe in Celtic mythology and the saying went that when a man of Celtic origin who was related to the people who slaughtered the Sidhe, that the woman from the fairy fort would be heard screaming in an unworldly fashion celebrating the oncoming death of the man who heard her screams... Her cry is meant to be heard by Irish people who have the prefix 'O' 'Mac' and 'Ni' before their surnames... Bean (Ban) is the irish word for woman, and Shee is the word used to describe people who were of the Sidhe people... thus the myth of the Banshee...

    Born and living in the north. I never really gave a damn about the divisions and the north and south. But the older I grow and the more I understand. I feel a growing hostility towards England. Many of Irelands major disasters and and losses of life can be tracked back to them. And I feel myself becoming much more republican. And yes. Reunification is inevitable

      Irish people heard about Mexico, they thought it would be a better place as it was also Catholic and was more welcoming of immigrants.

    Very well researched and simply presented. For a bit of extra education, the residents of Northern Ireland who are descended mainly from protestant-British settlers have begun to refer to themselves in recent years as “Northern Irish”. The non-British NI residents like myself who remain loyal to the prospect of a United Ireland free of British occupation or rule still refer to ourselves as Irish so it isn’t the Irish fight ourselves so much as Irish vs Descendants of British occupants. That’s not to say that all Protestants living here feel loyal to the Union, especially younger generations.
