The French port city of Calais was under English control between the years of 1347 to 1558. It was Englands gateway to the wool, tin, lead, and lace trades on mainland Europe and at one point came to be called the “brightest jewel in the English crown”. People in Calais, France, and Dover, Great Britain, can see each other’s cities with naked eyes on a clear day.

You’re information on the Gaels is incorrect. The Gaels were established in Ireland with their own culture and language a thousand years before the Angles and Saxons invaded England. They never moved over to Ireland. Pre Gaelic Celtic peoples moved over to Ireland from Britain a few thousand years ago and then Iberian Celts migrated to Ireland by sea and the two Celtic peoples merged to form the Gaels. Well before the Romans or Saxons or Angles or any of that stuff happened in Britain. The Gaels were raiding western Britain at the time of the Roman invasion and even had some bases on the coast. The Gaels had the kingdom of Dal Riata in western Scotland that eventually intermingled and joined with the Picts to form the kingdom of Scotland or, the Scots.

I understand that many people are offended by my blanket statement about Brexit voters being racist. I really do apologize for making that statement without doing more research into the matter. Here in America, the only news we saw about people who supported Brexit were the racist politicians, buses with blatant lies on them, etc, so I only really knew that side of the argument. It seems that not everyone who voted for Brexit was racist, but definitely every racist voted for Brexit.

When great Britain went to war against napoleon and the imperial French army they were lead by Sir Arthur Wellsley ( The Duke of Wellington) there force was made up of British,Dutch and German troops which was an estimated 850,000 men they had an alliance with the prussians of which had 450,000 men which were lead by Gebhard Von Blucher who was a field marschal and was in his 70s. They fought I the peninsula war they went on through Portugal and Spain defeating napoleon's army time and again. In 1814 Napoleon was exiled but he escaped and returned to fight 2 last battles he was determined to destroy Bluchers forces at charwois and had a decisive victory with 50,000 prussians dead. He then made his move on Wellingtons forces at qature bras of which Wellington withdrew but reformed his forces at Waterloo the battle started at 11:35 in the morning Napoleon's forces pinpointed hougomont and La haye saint with several waves of attacks by 6 oclock the French took hougomont but by 7 o'clock the British took it back Napoleon then though that Wellington was beaten so he deployed the old guard to crush the remaining forces behind the crest of the hill this is where the it went wrong for Napoleon as the old guard came over the hill Blucher and his forces arrived and wiped out the French Napoleon was arrested and was exiled at the island of St Helena where he died.

The mistake that a lot of people make is thinking that the troubles was caused by religious differences. It was largely a political issue, whether you wanted to live in Ireland or the UK. Religion was a broad indicator of your position but was never 100% accurate. What would have always been the key factor was whether or not you felt British or Irish.

Thank you for a very balanced and fair summary of my homeland the UK. I was interested to find out the Celts came from Spain as per your previous videos on Spain. I do enjoy learning where we as a collective come from, when you consider we have a such a strong sense of self. We likely started as Iberians, flirted with Italian Romans, Got a ruling class from the Dutch and Germans, a rude awakening from Scandinavia and good stir up from the Viking/french Normans.
