County Down: Ireland Explained

[@cmcg3738]

Having lived in Rostrevor, Newry, Warrenpoint, Belfast, and Banbridge, I enjoyed this video a lot. Up Down as my granny would say every summer, especially in 91 and 94.

[@DownUndaWhereTheresThunda]

My home county!

[@Gallalad1]

Great to see this channel growing, great content lad keep it up.

[@GeographyWorld]

Thank you!

[@mattpotter8725]

After you've done the counties I'd love to see videos on the country towns and major cities and an overview of their main historical events and legends associated with the areas nearby. Great video and I love discovering more about places I thought I knew but after watching your videos realise that there so much more to learn!!!

[@GeographyWorld]

Thanks! That will be a long way away but I have had that idea in the back of my head for a while.

[@JamesKerLindsay]

Always so well researched and informative. Thanks a lot! I hope all else is well at your end.

[@GeographyWorld]

Thanks! These are my favourite videos to make so I'm looking forward to making Dublin next.

[@stevehanna4345]

[@GeographyWorld]

[@gunnargill9939]

You've really hit your strides with these, each one is better than the last! Keep up the good work.

[@GeographyWorld]

Thank you! I'm looking forward to making Dublin next.

[@GeographyWorld]

Have you ever been up to County Down? (Sorry for the mistake with the map at 8:17)

[@oscyk]

Yes I have a few times

[@haroldinho9930]

[@IrishTransportGuy]

I have indeed!

[@juliasisk1194]

I live in Kircubbin on the Ards Peninsula. Near the start, with Burr Point, you can see Glastry College. My friend goes there!

[@marcusuadonnghaile1855]

Up Down!!! 😊

[@Uladhtírghráthóir]

As a downer I can confirm all of this info

[@tylertronthedestroyer4379]

Dundee isnt the only Dun in Scotland, theres also the city of Dunfermline and the towns of Dunkeld, Dunbar, and Dunblane, Dum and Dun are used interchangeably e.g. Dumbarton and Dumfries

[@grahamfleming8139]

In the Scottish borders we have ancrum the bend ,lussedden flower banking st.boswells ARCHILDUN,earlston or arrow castle ,nach neonach a tha e ,strange isn't it.

[@oscyk]

YAYY!!

[@IrishTransportGuy]

Gotta love it when there's a new Geography World video on a certain county

[@rodneyquinn2528]

To make this way easier to follow, you should've explained just counties then cities after in order of the county's you just explained.

[@cianwalker1829]

Do Louth please!

[@tylertronthedestroyer4379]

Finally get to see my Home City mentioned on KZbin, DUNDEE, just out of curiosity, have you been to Dundee?

[@haroldinho9930]

yes yes yes I love u

[@JohnTaylor-bf6ll]

County Tyrone is missing. I've been going through them all in preparation for a grand tour. If any other is also missing, I'll let you know.

[@GeographyWorld]

I've only done 9 of the 32 counties so far, including 4 of the 6 counties of Northern Ireland.

[@juliasisk1194]

Idk why i would watch this living in down my whole life

[@betty-jocarlo5980]

The Russell's and Rowleys of County Down five miles south of Belfast. My grandmother had her 22 acres of farmland was taken by the British when she was 10 years old. She told me to get it back from them when I grew up. Maybe I can. I want to try. I definitely will try harder if Trump becomes President again. Right now I'm at a research stage to pinpoint where they actually were. My dad tried in 1955. My older brother tried in the 1980s. My turn.😊

My last name is Dunn. Do you think my ancestors came from County Down?

[@JohnJohnJohnJohnJohnJohnJohnJo]

So’s mine and I’m from down so you might be on to something

[@WildBoreWoodWind]

I have no idea which part of Ireland you're from, from your 'accent', I'm guessing, somewhere in Sasna? 🤨

[@GeographyWorld]

I'm from Cork but my voice always sounds a bit strange when I'm recording.

Some sort of hard to understand Cork accent.
