Average Irishman

The Republic of Ireland is a country in Western Europe that occupies the entirety of the island of Ireland most of the island of Ireland with the northeastern chunk of the island belonging to the United Kingdom, a fact that is guaranteed to make Irishmen seethe.

History[edit | edit source]

The Celts settled the island of Ireland, formerly known as Hibernia by the Romans, around 500 BC. The Anglo-Normans invaded Ireland from 1169 - 1177[1], and England pretty much ruled Ireland all the way up until the early 20th century. The Acts of Union 1800 united the Kingdom of Great Britain with the Kingdom of Ireland as previously they were just in a personal union, which refers to when two or more kingdoms are ruled by the same king[2].

The Great Famine of Ireland lasted from 1845 - 1852 and caused the deaths of over a million Irish. The reason the famine happened is because a blight ruined the potatoes grown in Ireland, and potatoes were pretty much the only somewhat nutritious food that could grow in Irish soil.

The blight was started by the English to kill off the Irish.

Ignore the falsehood above, the English did not intentionally cause the potato blight to kill off the Irish

After the Great Famine, the population of Ireland dropped from 8.5 million right before the famine to 4.4 million in 1901[3]. The reason for this is not only that many died during the famine, but also because many Irish fled to America. During World War I, the British postponed the anticipated Home Rule act due to World War I, but this caused anger in Ireland among the IRA and hardcore nationalists, and while most Irish people saw the IRA as a nuisance and saw the postponing of Home Rule as reasonable due to World War I, public opinion turned against the British after the execution of the leaders of the Easter Uprising. Not long after World War I, the Irish fought a war of independence against the British and gained independence from the UK in the early 20th century, but some of the northernmost counties voted to stay in the UK because a long time ago the Scottish settled in the northern part of Ireland and spread Protestantism while the rest of Ireland remained Catholic. The north–south divide led to the Troubles, an ethnic conflict lasting from the 1960s to 1998 over the subject of whether Northern Ireland should rejoin the Republic of Ireland or stay with the UK[4]. It's because of the Troubles where the Irish get their reputation as car-bombers.

Irish-Americans[edit | edit source]

As mentioned, the Great Famine led many Irish to settle in America. The Irish were discriminated against because they were seen as stupid alcoholics🗝️and because Americans hated Catholics🔒. Despite this, these days many amerimutts like to brag about being 1/16th Irish or something even though they're probably Protestants.

Irish Soyjaks[edit | edit source]

The Irish people are the source of two main soyjak variants:

  • Feraljak, which is traced from a distorted picture of the Irish Jewtuber Jacksepticeye.
  • Cobson, which is traced from the avatar of Jobe Smith, the main antagonist of The Lawnmower Man portrayed by Irish-American actor Jeff Fahey.
