History of Ireland

I would try and answer your question fully and completely myself but I would still end up pointing you in the same directions.

But still I'm gonna try you have to remember that during that time 70% of the country was held by 10% of the population.

Thus many people in rural Ireland were either if they could afford it tenant farmers. Although this did not save many during the famine as they were evicted from there lots and ended up either catching aboat if they had the money or living by the road side or worse still in the work house.

But the vast majority were farm labourers living in pretty appalling conditions even before the famine but the british public policys at this time while well mean't did not really help the situation.

As the office of public works was set up to give many of these labourers jobs so they could feed themselves the jobs were to say the least pointless building many of the stone walls in Ireland and also building unnesscary roads did empoly people due to the fact that the main stable diet was gone. the British government had to impot maize this was much more costly so the money that was earned in a week would barly feed the family for two days. Many again ended up in the work house in many cases the most appaling conditions were suffered in these places.

Those who got on the coffin ships as they were called faced similar conditions.

You also have to remember that while the intentions of the british for the Irish to raise money and feed themselves was perhaps a good one many of the poorer Irish worked on a barter system trading work for food.

But I suppose the one thing which they should be held accountable for is the exports of food that were still leaving Ireland regurlay.

It is estimated that upwards of 2 million people died it killed the Irish population it is estimated that their were at least 7 million people living in Ireland at the time it is only getting back to those levels again now.

Given that their original purpose of hunting (Wolves and Boar) protecting stock or as war dogs is gone they are just pets. The breed nearly died out in the 19th century but a Captain Graham saved it by interbreeding mainly with the Scottish Deerhound but also the Great Dane, Borzoi and Mastiffs. This may have produced a larger dog than historically known and the modern temperament is also probably different being much softer than the fierce hound of Irish legend, they are often referred today as Gentle Giants. A number of health problems are associated with them and their life expectancy is only up to about 8 years. They are also used as mascots by the Irish Guards (part of the British Army).

The Irish - At the time of the famine most of the Irish population were poor peasants, as the land was owned by England's lords and gentry/merchant population. The potato was the MAIN staple/food for Ireland, and before the Irish were allowed to cultivate the crops for themselves and their families, all crops went to England to pay obscene taxes and fees to England.

One third of the Irish population starved to death due to the "rotten potato crop" that they harvested - the English landlords, monarchy, and government did nothing to help the Irish population. The potato famine lasted over 10 years as the land was also poisoned from this fungus that destroyed the first crop.

The great Irish migration to America started in the 1840's due to the potato famine. Ireland is a small island, (the only European country not infected by the Roman Empire - amazing Celtic people, as along with present day Scotland and her people fought the Romans, e.g. this is why Handrain's Wall was built.)

All told, one-third of the Irish population emigrated from Eire (Ireland), one-third died in their homeland, and the remaining third stayed.

The great Irish emigration ended in the 1860's. Others came, but not in the waves as seen in the past 20 years. Perfect timing for the Irish, as many were taken from their boats and immediately put in the Union Army - they left a land of poverty and death to come here and give their blood gladly in America's Civil War.

In traditional English usage, the term "sweetbread" does not refer to any actual bread such as sandwich bread, buns or rolls, but to a category of meat, specifically, the thymus and pancreas glands, brain and other internal organs of butchered animals. The origin of the term goes back at least to the 16th century, and is thought to refer to the thymus glands because they generally have a rich, mildly sweet flavor. See the link below for more information.
> In earlier centuries, the words "meat" and "bread" both referred to food in general, and were used interchangeably.

This is sometimes called Polish Stew.

Add into a large pot:
potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
1 small or 1/2 large head of cabbage, cut into chunks
1 to 2 quartered onions
2 average rolls of polish sausage, cut into 1" slices, or Li'l Smokies, whole
Salt and pepper to taste
Cover with water and cook until vegetables are tender
*the amount of the vegetables you use is up to you according to the size pot of stew you wish to make.

The great Irish potato famine started in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland in the years 1842 to 1852. There was mass starvation, which is estimated to of killed one million people. Many people also emigrated from Ireland because of the famine. Ireland's population is estimated to have decreased as much as 25 percent in just seven years. Historians now know the cause of the famine was a disease called potato blight. The famine was so great, because at the time nearly 33 percent of Ireland's population relied solely on potatoes for nourishment.
