Yeah because 1801-1921 were a golden age for Ireland.  The famine, mass poverty and emigration.  A population crash.  Good times. 

Haven't heard from you in a while.  But yeah, Ireland seems to be the issue I frequently cross party lines on in this Forum for some reason.  Forgot to mention the loading food onto ships and dumping it out at sea.  There's a lot high school textbooks don't teach you about the "Famine".  (Notice the quote marks)

STFU please, or at least, learn what you are talking about first.

Are you an Orangeman?  I know your avatar could possibly suggest that.

NO.

What do you expect when the ruling party is named "Fianna Fáil – The Republican Party"

But seriously, their economic policies are to blame.
