There wasn't really any actual subjugation until the late 17th century, until then English rule over Ireland was basically nominal, with English influence being contained to a small area around Dublin

no problem, if you get a chance explain to me what biblioteca is

>>2712635

Oh that's just the common Spanish word for Library.

A slight variation of the Latin word for Library " bibliothēca" which is a also a bit of a loanword in English actually, known to us plainly as bibliotheca, although it's seldom if ever made use of.

Latin itself took the word from the Greeks, who presumably started the trend.

There's actually a variant of this word in a great many European languages, in a sort of continental game of telephone, each adopting it from their neighbor.

Though I am sweet on physical copies of a book that I have some tactile and tangible interaction with, literary archives are great.

I simply love how archive.org presents the material in a very convincing guise of a book that you can actually rifle through, cover and all!

He was our Louis XIV, if napeleon died like Cromwell then France would have modernised faster

Did you know that Napoleon was actually a direct force for modernization in France?

He shook up old institution, thought, and property dominance. The effects of his rule even became an engine of progress for Germany, most notably by irrefutably disbanding the HRE, which had by then long existed as a ridiculous mess. This allowed greater ease for the emergence of a true state in that region.
