Henry II of England converted the whole country of Ireland to Catholicism with the help of Dermot MacMurrough (deposed king of Leinster province, seen by nationalist Irish as a traitor) and Strongbow (the alias of Richard de Clare, Second Earl of Pembroke, a Norman lord who led the Norman invasions). Pope Alexander III gave assent to Henry II’s rule over Ireland following this.

Hey! How dare you destroy the mythology if an "indigenous pipple?"

Would it upset them to know that there is no independence for either Ireland or England under the European Union and their “ever closer union” doctrine . . . ? They are one country again; they have been since 1973.
