When did 'start going wrong' for Ireland? the Vikings? Since Irish used to raid the Britons prior, and had strong ecclesiastical relationships with them after.

Norman invasion in the 1100s. Been under near continual English occupation/colonisation since then till 1920s.
Wow raiding the land on the other side of the sea, such a sign of advanced civilization
When did things go well at all?
Only very recently.

Actually yes, because it shows that the civilization in question has an understanding of how to build and use boats.
>When did 'start going wrong' for Ireland? the Vikings?
The exact opposite. The Vikings are when things started going right for Ireland, with the Scandinavians founding all of Ireland's major cities, opening international trade routes, and bringing civilization to the bog-people of Ireland.
Wow... incredible something people have done since the early neolithic
But that went completely tits up.
After the Nine Years War
Prior to it Irish Lords had enjoyed a reasonable amount of free reign, Irish culture dominated even among the Anglos in Ireland, and the English government really only controlled a small area around Dublin.
Once they lost the Nine Years War, and the Flight of the Earls happened, things would never be the same.

Since 2014, Ireland's had a strong recovery.

why did anti-anglo Irish used that Red hand?
It's an ancient Irish symbol from mythology
To think O'Neill came close to winning too.
It's an ancient Irish symbol Unionists hijacked it in a fit of 'we wuz'.
In the cities yes in the country areas not so much. Also the workforce will have to sustain the retirement of our baby boomers equivalents pretty soon whilst also expanding for all the children Irish people still have despite the rest of Europe turning anti natalist for some reason.

check yo anglo privilege
They launched one too many ancient raids on England/Wales. They've been getting btfo ever since.
This, the vikings civilized their ass
>tfw the Spics fucked up everything again
this meme needs to end, they simply settled upstream of established cities
The most obvious influence was that they gave them actual boat-building and seafaring technology instead of the shitty rafts they had.
Around 1922 when the Brits stopped oppressing the potato niggers to the fullest extent.
Irish need a boot over their throats at all times.
Ireland has always been a historically poor island though.I would say that in the long run it would have been better for the island if it was fully remained part of the UK however the EU seems to be filling that role for the republic and UK for the north.
>it would have been better for the island if it was fully remained part of the UK
Because NI is such an economic success.
Being able to utilize natioal soverignty in order to illegally make money does not a successful economy make, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, and Ireland are competing to see who can suck corporate dick the hardest.
Tbh Ollie Cromwell caused the most damage to Ireland, And if the 9 year war succeeded for the Irish they wouldn't have been replaced by Scottish colonists in the north.
rural areas are getting fucked worldwide
You take back your insults of Liechtenstein.
