Hello Aluxers, on this episode of Travel Tuesdays by Alux we're going to IRELAND! Which country/city should we go to next week? We've done these so far: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eJa5p4Zsj9qhj6M 9

I know one exotic land with interesting culture and people called Turkmenistan. They've got a giant burning gas-mining canyon which has been burning for decades. And the architectural look of the country is outstanding for the region. But policy and economy are still in crysis.

[@thenextshenanigantownandth4393]

lmao I noticed that too . also not even accurate . A. Ireland was never truly joined with the landmass of Britian . B Ireland became an island 60,000 years ago kown as the Midlandian - it was still part of a continental mass of europe france for quite a while and there was warm periods 40,000-20,000 years ago and around 7,000 years ago there was an ice desert cold snap . so far we know humans had lived there for 12,600 years 10,500 BC but there could have been people there for hundreds of thousands of years ,we simple dont know due to glacial scarping destroying nearly all the deposits it would seem.

Arthur Guinness was a brewer of ales in his first brewery in Leixlip, Co.Kildare. He took the now famous 9.000 year lease on the 4 acre property in Dublin in 1759. His first excise return for the production of stout dates to 1778. Stout or porter, was a London beer and was the world's first industrially produced beer. The advantage of brown malt and being well-hopped meant that the beer kept for a long time and could be stored in larger quantities.
