there's a really clever cartoon I've seen where an irishman mistakes a negro for one of his number that's come in to the country before him.

he asks the negro just how long he's been in country, on learning that he's been in country for only three months the irishman exclaims that he wouldn't get a tan like that for all the whiskey in Tipperary, and that he's getting on the next boat back.

Irish and blacks lived in close proximity to one another in the Americas. Often being forced to interbreed, there was bound to be some sort of cultural exchange

Yeah but Tyrone has never been a personal name in Ireland. In Irish it means "Eoghan's Land".

You think the Irish are bad?

You should see the irish in the north that want to be british. Bigger we-wuzzers and dindus than your average african americans. What a fucking meme of a "country" NI is, it's like the somalia of Europe.

>>
>>2651936
>>2651921

I bet you wouldn't say this about scotland.

NI is as ancient and precious and valuable part of the UK as wales or anywhere. We have beaten the IRA definitively and you faggy taigs and niggers down south have not and will not ever defeat us because we're british no matter how bad that upsets you.

shush, paddy.

Typical pro-repubican alternative facts. They didn't work in the past and they won't work now. That cuckold Collins got what he deserved.

It's 100 years old you fucking twat. There are people alive who were born before it existed
>>
>>2652008

in that vein of logical constraint then "Ireland" has only existed for 100 years as well
>>
>>2652022
The Republic of Ireland yeah, nobody disputes this
>>
>>2651989
>>2652022
The English have effectively colonized and controlled Northern Ireland, such that we could consider it as existing separately from Irish Gaelic Ireland since the 16th century.
So I think we can fairly say it's 500 years of history.

Irish Ireland is obviously much older. Who knows when the Irish became a distinct group from Celts?

It's a fact.
I'm not English. I'm an American and have more German and Irish heritage than English.

I literally don't give a fuck about your meaningless island struggles over a completely insignificant amount of land. My extended family probably owns more land collectively than you people have been fighting over for so long.

They also tried to escape "white slave culture" by taking names from muslims, a group of people enslaving blacks for hundreds of years to this day. Don't expect any logic from American niggers, they're collectively retarded and so is their "culture"

That's wrong though. If that was the case Christians would be the exact same as well.

And New Orleans is steeped in French cultural traces and influences.

From the name of a county in Northern Ireland which is derived from Irish Gaelic Tir Eoghain meaning "land of EOGHAN". This name was popularized by American actor Tyrone Power (1914-1958), who was named after his great-grandfather, an Irish actor.

More like Spanish. Even most buildingsof the French quarter is actually from the Spanish colonial period.
