Please, call the Turkic people Turk in your videos. I have noticed that you are also dividing the Turkic world by naming each of them diffrently. Turkic people are the genetic descendants of ancient steppe people of Eurasia (East Europe and Central Asia) such as Huns, Xiongnu, Bulgars, Khazars, Oghuz, Pechenegs, Cumans, Scythians, Sarmatians, Massagetes, Cimmerians, Tocharians, Ephthalites (White Huns), Alans, Eurasian Avars, Juanjuans etc.

This is the first time I have heard a fully comprehensive telling of the history of Ireland. There seems to be a blackout where Irish history is concerned. Thank you for this presentation. I'll be re-watching this many times because of all the content. I hope you will take each of High King and do some more videos giving us as much information about each period as possible. It's also very interesting to hear the Irish names for people, places, and things. This video was/is a real educative experience. I am 3/4 Irish, yet I speak English, know more about English history, and have more of an English worldview than ever I know about Ireland.

Its also noticeable in the last few months the production values (which were always standout) have improved. You deserve so many more subscribers - keep it up. Whoever chooses your music also has a real talent for it. Not trying to kiss a** but I feel I am overdue in stating this.

Just so you know 'dh' and 'th' are silent in Irish so Donnchadh is pronounced approximately [thun-kha]. Finnliath is [fin-leeah]. Conchobar is actually [kun-oor]. Oh and Uí Néill is [ee-nail]. I do realise that Irish pronunciation is very difficult if you aren't familiar with the language. Just trying to help improve the channel if I can.

It seems like in the early Middle Ages, raw ruling class engaged in a lot of hi risk/high reward politics. Falnn was reduced to almost nothing, but through willpower, luck and ruthlessness, he clawed his way to the top. Then, because his sons kept on dying, it all slipped away with his death. This gives the Early Middle Ages a tragic, dramatic narrative that is a little less so in the high Middle Ages.

Loving the attention to Irish history even your pronunciation is perfect in most places but as an Irish man myself I can say medieval Irish names are painfully difficult to deal with so I must congratulate you on your efforts. Keep up the great work and hopefully you continue the focus on Ireland our medieval history is often just overlooked due to the more romantic struggle for independence but it's just as interesting and to have a voice like your own present it could get many more people to look further into the topic.

@Michael Halligan.., I would not exactly say plagiarized. That's sounds to me as if J.R.R. Tolkien stole it. Which I think he didn't. The part of Middle Earth in which the events of Tolkien's Legendarium took place, corresponds largely to the British Isles as a whole. With Eriador being the whole of Ireland (this includes Northern Ireland) with the exception of Southern Ireland. Rhovanion being the North of England. Forodwaith being Scotland. Gondor being Southern Ireland South Wales and a part of Western England. Rohan being North Wales and also a part of Western England. Mordor being the Midlands East Anglia Norfolk and Suffolk in the East of England. Khand being Kent (the Southeast of England). Rhûn being a part of Northern England east of Yorkshire and north of Norfolk nowadays at the bottom of the sea. Harondor being the part between South Wales and Cornwall (the Channel of Bristol). Dumbar being Cornwall. Nearby Harad being Southern England and the English Channel (La Manche for the French). And last but not least Far Harad being Normandy and Bretagne (France).

Do you mean pre Indo European Ireland as in late Neolithic period or pre Celtic, early Bronze age? The first Indo Europeans might have spoken a early western European Centrum type language that later split into Celtic/Germanic/Italic dialects & languages. That's what the Indo European barrow burials around Stonehenge suggest with latest DNA research.

Great video! The history of the Gaels is such an interesting topic, full of the bitterest infighting. I would love to see a video how this infighting continued onward in later eras, and how it began to change following the arrival of the French in 1066. I would also love to know how Gael infighting impacted the campaigns of the Frankish Lords in the High Middle Ages in claiming Irish land, and how 'Normanisation' impacted Gaelic society. Which High King is next? Brian Boru, Gudrod Crovan, Magnus Barefoot, Henry II?

I am a direct descendant of Flann Sinna by his daughter Gormflaith Ingen Flainn Sinna Mac Aedh (Ó Colmáin), Queen of Tara. She is my 31st paternal GGM. (She also married Cormac mac Mothla, King Of The Dessi.) It is quite helpful to gain an understanding of those ancient ancestors. His son's didn't fare well, did they?

BLOOD MAY BE THICKER, but it is also naturally hot. *Physical proximity* breeds greater contempt, because distant rivals don't come in contact as often. And you are more likely to be in a contest for many things with someone near you. Hence, brothers attach brothers. Fratricide and regicide happen often in powerful clans and families. Think. Despite Western Europe's brutal conquest of the Pacific, Africa and the America's, you find just as much brutality on contintent - so intense, so persistent, so widespread. It's hard to believe they now enjoy porous borders with each other.

Its important to remember that their is a difference between the Scandinavian settlers and the Scandinavian raiders(Vikings). At that time lots of Scandinavians had settled into Ireland, married raised families. We also have Irish Vikings at that time (foreign Gael) who were probably just as bad as the Vikings or worse.

I wouldn't say that Boru was making up the hatred that the Irish had for Scandinavians. Most kings in general don't have any nationalistic sentiment and are solely focused on acquiring power. The sentiment of the Irish tribesmen would have been different from that of the elite. Obviously it was very highly possible that Boru himself was using the feelings of the Irish for his own goals, so the "Norsophobia" does makes sense.

Please do a video on the Huns, they are the most misunderstood people on earth. Their culture, their ethnicity , are now being contested both by Hungary and trykey, cebtral Asian people and even some Germans , during the ww1 the western Europeans used to term Germans as savage hunnic people, Germanic kings and nobles also used to wear pickle helmets.
