Propaganga is the answer to that question my dear cousin.

AnswerBecause the government of Britain who run northern Ireland cover it up and only tell you what they want you to know. AnswerBecause working class stiffs don't read 17th century books on anything. Apart from that, teaching history seems to be dying out in Irish schools and that may not be a bad thing, given that much of it was Propaganda anyway. Anybody who is interested in Irish history can read all they want online. There are masses of history sites. Hope the British government doesn't find out. :) AnswerLads the British government is not going to stop people in 2006 from reading about Irish history

Answer

Irish people are not that uneducated!!!!!!! And also, the British government doesn't control Ireland anymore!!! It's not some kind of conspiracy! Honestly, where did you get that? Also"working class stiffs". A bit racist, there, sweetheart!!!! If anything, Irish history isn't known about because nobody cares because they have to do eleven other subjects. This is 2008!!! Seriously people!!! Irish history isn't very interesting anyway. It's all famine, scratchy wool, tuatha na Rí, emigration and Celtic traditions. Which are actually pretty cool. But Irish is a huge section in our history education. Most people drop it after the Junior Cert. though. "Propaganda"????? Nobody bears a grudge against Britain and all that Norhern Ireland stuff is way better, so be informed before you answer the question.
