The United Irishmen's Rebellion

The United Irishmen are formed. These are the Galitarians. Their leadership are all Protestants. They're all Presbyterians. In 1796, a force of 15,000 men sail into Bantry Bay. This is the closest Ireland came to being invaded. Had those 15,000 French soldiers invaded, Ireland will be different. Either of a Bistro in every Irish town today instead of a supermax. Decent wine instead of blue, none in the 80s. You know where your head was crippled by terrible wine? Yeah, absolutely. No, no, we would have had a great French egalitarian society. Now, forget about that.
