The Irish Rebellion of 1641 (Irish:Éirí Amach 1641) began as an attempted coup d'état by Irish Catholic gentry, who tried to seize control of the Englishadministration in Ireland to force concessions for the Catholics living under English rule. The coup failed and the rebellion developed into an ethnic conflict between native Irish Catholics on one side, and English and Scottish Protestant settlers on the other. This began a conflict known as the Irish Confederate Wars.
The rising was sparked by Catholic fears of an impending invasion of Ireland by anti-Catholic forces of the English Long Parliament and the Scottish Covenanters, who were defying the authority of King Charles I (king of England, Scotland, and Ireland). In turn, the rebels' suspected association with Charles helped start the English Civil War. The English and Scottish Parliaments refused to raise an army to put down the rebellion unless it was under their command rather than the King's.
The Irish rebellion broke out in October 1641 and was followed by several months of violent chaos before the Irish Catholic upper classes and clergy formed the Catholic Confederation in the summer of 1642. The Confederation became a de facto government of most of Ireland, free from the control of the English administration and loosely aligned with the Royalist side in the Wars of the Three Kingdoms. The subsequent Irish Confederate Wars continued in Ireland until the 1650s, when Oliver Cromwell's New Model Army decisively defeated the Irish Catholics and Royalists, and re-conquered the country.
The Irish Bruce Wars 1315–1318, an attempt by members of the O'Neill clan backed by a Scottish and Irish army to make Edward Bruce the High King of Ireland. They were supported by Edward's older brother, Robert the Bruce, King of Scotland.
The Geraldine Rebellion (1534) and the FitzGerald Rebellion against Henry VIII of England 1535 to 1537, having to do with who was supreme head of the church
The Desmond Rebellions, which occurred in the 1560s, 1570s and 1580s in Munster
Tyrone's Rebellion (also known as the Nine Years' War (Ireland) from 1594 to 1603, predominantly in Ulster
The Irish Rebellion of 1798 (Irish:Éirí Amach 1798), also known as the United Irishmen Rebellion (Irish:Éirí Amach na nÉireannach Aontaithe), was an uprising against Britishrule in Ireland lasting from May to September 1798. The United Irishmen, a republican revolutionary group influenced by the ideas of the American and French revolutions, were the main organising force behind the rebellion.
Background
Since 1691 and the end of the Williamite War, Ireland had chiefly been controlled by the minority AnglicanProtestant Ascendancy constituting members of the established Church of Ireland loyal to the British Crown. It governed through a form of institutionalised sectarianism codified in the Penal Laws which discriminated against both the majority Irish Catholic population and non-Anglican Protestants (for example Presbyterians). In the late 18th century, liberal elements among the ruling class were inspired by the example of the American Revolutionary War (1775–1783) and sought to form common cause with the Catholic populace to achieve reform and greater autonomy from Britain. As in England, the majority of Protestants, as well as all Catholics, were barred from voting because they did not pass a property threshold.
Another grievance was that Ireland, although nominally a sovereign kingdom governed by the monarch and Parliament of the island, in reality had less independence than most of Britain's North American colonies, due to a series of laws enacted by the English, such as Poynings' law of 1494 and the Declaratory Act of 1719, the former of which gave the English veto power over Irish legislation, and the latter of which gave the British the right to legislate for the kingdom.

The Irish Rebellion ( 1916) || BBC
The 1916 Easter Rising, told from the perspective of people from what is now known as Northern Ireland, is explored in a new BBC documentary
The Easter Rising was an ill-fated insurrection against British rule in Ireland which lasted less than a week - from 24 April to 29 April 1916.
However, the short-lived rebellion made a lasting impact on the course of Irish history and ultimately led to the partition of the island and the creation of the state of Northern Ireland.
"There wasn't a shot fired in the north, but there was still a very large northern contingent who fought on the side of the rebels," says series producer Paul McGuigan.
"Also, you have the irony that some people from the north were part of the British Army and they were all Irishmen at that stage because there was no par...

How Ireland Became Bitterly Divided | Irish War of Independence
2023 marks the 25th anniversary of signing of The Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement, which brought an end to 30 years of conflict in Northern Ireland known as 'the Troubles'. This conflict had a deep and embedded history that stretches back over a century.
Between 1919 and 1921, Ireland played host to a long and bloody guerrilla conflict between British state forces and Irish republican guerrillas, in the form of Irish Volunteers or the Irish Republican Army (IRA). The conflict would completely transform the political landscape in Ireland.
In this documentary, Dr Conor Mulvagh and Professor Marie Coleman break down this critical period of Irish history, and the legacy of the War of Independence today.
Directed by Mark Bowsher.

Easter Rising: The Revolt That Paved The Way To Ireland's Independence | Terrible Beauty | Timeline
A Terrible Beauty is the story of the men and women of the Easter Rising in Dublin in 1916, Irish and British, caught up in a conflict many did not understand and of the innocent men and boys, executed because of what transpired in The Battle of Mount Street Bridge. The British soldiers were the last of the Great War volunteers, who joined up together to fight the Germans. They knew that there was a strong chance they would die in France, but to die in Dublin would never have crossed their minds.

2023 marks the 25th anniversary of signing of The Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement, which brought an end to 30 years of conflict in Northern Ireland known as 'the Troubles'. This conflict had a deep and embedded history that stretches back over a century.
Between 1919 and 1921, Ireland played host to a long and bloody guerrilla conflict between British state forces and Irish republican guerrillas, in the form of Irish Volunteers or the Irish Republican Army (IRA). The conflict would completely transform the political landscape in Ireland.
In this documentary, Dr Conor Mulvagh and Professor Marie Coleman break down this critical period of Irish history, and the legacy of the War of Independence today.
Directed by Mark Bowsher.

A Terrible Beauty is the story of the men and women of the Easter Rising in Dublin in 1916, Irish and British, caught up in a conflict many did not understand and of the innocent men and boys, executed because of what transpired in The Battle of Mount Street Bridge. The British soldiers were the last of the Great War volunteers, who joined up together to fight the Germans. They knew that there was a strong chance they would die in France, but to die in Dublin would never have crossed their minds.

1782. Years before the Great Rebellion of 1798, British Army officials have dominion over her small town of Naas.

----
The 1798 rebellion left a permanent mark on the face of Irish history. Inspired by the American and French Revolutions, it was the chance that the Irish people sought to assert and solidify their independence from the British Empire. The rebellion ultimately failed for multiple complex reasons, and its direct result was the Act of Union of 1801, in which the United Kingdom absorbed Ireland. The Irish never forgot their ancestors' struggles, and the same rebel spirit revived in the early 20th century, when Ireland won its independence after multiple horrific and bloody conflicts. Setting the film before the rebellion openly broke out, allows us to explore a social structure and a family dynamic, in a time where everything is unsure, and every choice could have irreversible outcomes.
We couldn't be more excited to bring you this film now. It is about family, tough choices and conflict, in a country that knows about all three better than most. The disorder of a repressive control over the Irish people is where our rebellion starts and their fate rests on the actions they are yet to take. The dilemmas the people of this period had to face, might strike a familiar chord with more recent or current troubles. Conflict, after all, is where there are sides that raise walls. This is why we find it helpful to look to the past, and seek guidance from unsung heroes, like Niamh. A girl that, despite this terrible historical backdrop, continues to work, sing, fall in love, to feel afraid, angry, to question and lead her own way through all this to dream and hope.

#ExtraHistory #EasterRising #History
The 1916 Easter Rising, told from the perspective of people from what is now known as Northern Ireland, is explored in a new BBC documentary
The Easter Rising was an ill-fated insurrection against British rule in Ireland which lasted less than a week - from 24 April to 29 April 1916.
However, the short-lived rebellion made a lasting impact on the course of Irish history and ultimately led to the partition of the island and the creation of the state of Northern Ireland.
"There wasn't a shot fired in the north, but there was still a very large northern contingent who fought on the side of the rebels," says series producer Paul McGuigan.
"Also, you have the irony that some people from the north were part of the British Army and they were all Irishmen at that stage because there was no partition.
"So, you had Irish fighting against Irish and some people from the north were part of the British Army stationed in Dublin at that stage and I don't think that has really been looked at in any of the proceeding documentaries."

This is rare footage of Ireland during times of the 1916 Easter Rising and the Irish War of Independence (1919-1921).
The island of Ireland is divided between the Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom which controls the north. But given that the Irish fought a short and brutal war for independence, why didn't the north leave the UK with the rest of Ireland? To find out why Ireland is still divided watch this short and simple animated history documentary.

2023 marks the 25th anniversary of signing of The Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement, which brought an end to 30 years of conflict in Northern Ireland known as 'the Troubles'. This conflict had a deep and embedded history that stretches back over a century.
Between 1919 and 1921, Ireland played host to a long and bloody guerrilla conflict between British state forces and Irish republican guerrillas, in the form of Irish Volunteers or the Irish Republican Army (IRA). The conflict would completely transform the political landscape in Ireland.
In this documentary, Dr Conor Mulvagh and Professor Marie Coleman break down this critical period of Irish history, and the legacy of the War of Independence today.
Directed by Mark Bowsher.

A Terrible Beauty is the story of the men and women of the Easter Rising in Dublin in 1916, Irish and British, caught up in a conflict many did not understand and of the innocent men and boys, executed because of what transpired in The Battle of Mount Street Bridge. The British soldiers were the last of the Great War volunteers, who joined up together to fight the Germans. They knew that there was a strong chance they would die in France, but to die in Dublin would never have crossed their minds.

The Irish Rebellion of 1641 (Irish:Éirí Amach 1641) began as an attempted coup d'état by Irish Catholic gentry, who tried to seize control of the Englishadministration in Ireland to force concessions for the Catholics living under English rule. The coup failed and the rebellion developed into an ethnic conflict between native Irish Catholics on one side, and English and Scottish Protestant settlers on the other. This began a conflict known as the Irish Confederate Wars.
The rising was sparked by Catholic fears of an impending invasion of Ireland by anti-Catholic forces of the English Long Parliament and the Scottish Covenanters, who were defying the authority of King Charles I (king of England, Scotland, and Ireland). In turn, the rebels' suspected association with Charles helped start the English Civil War. The English and Scottish Parliaments refused to raise an army to put down the rebellion unless it was under their command rather than the King's.
The Irish rebellion broke out in October 1641 and was followed by several months of violent chaos before the Irish Catholic upper classes and clergy formed the Catholic Confederation in the summer of 1642. The Confederation became a de facto government of most of Ireland, free from the control of the English administration and loosely aligned with the Royalist side in the Wars of the Three Kingdoms. The subsequent Irish Confederate Wars continued in Ireland until the 1650s, when Oliver Cromwell's New Model Army decisively defeated the Irish Catholics and Royalists, and re-conquered the country.

Directed and edited by Marcus Howard. Episode 1 Beginnings. 1798. The Year of Blood. 30-50,000 Irish killed. Why? A storm of courage, ideals, betrayal and violence was unleashed as the Irish nation, inspired by revolutions in France and America, rose in over 40 battles to throw off their oppressors. Watch while the storm clouds gather as The United Irishmen come together, Catholic Protestant and Dissenter, to fight for Ireland's first battle for a republic in 1798. This episode establishes the context of the early years of The United Irishmen. Wolf Tone, Henry Joy McCracken and Lord Edward Fitzgerald unite. The Orange Order is established. You can see how and why events unfolded up to 1796 in this episode. The film also looks at the influence 1798 had on later rebellions such as the 1916 Rising. The film features battle re-enactors retracing the footsteps of the Rebellion. Episode 2 will be available soon.
Featuring interviews and performances with Paddy Cullivan who performs 10 Dark Secrets of 1798, Michael O'Flanagan who was one of the organisers for '98 events in Dublin at the 200th anniversary, historians Dominic Price, Tola Collier, Liz Gillis, Rory O'Connor of the National 1798 Rebellion Centre in Wexford, Steve Dunford and Colum Ó Ruairc of the 1798 Rebellion Casualty Database.

0:00 Introduction
0:30 Irish Rebellion
1:24 French Invasion
In which we follow Niamh, a teenage girl in the midst of a brewing rebellion.
1782. Years before the Great Rebellion of 1798, British Army officials have dominion over her small town of Naas. Having smelled the existence of a defiant core, they will stop at nothing to expose it. Niamh feels like the weight of the world lays on her shoulders after her father abandoned her family, the only thing that he left behind being a weathered copy of "The Midnight Court". Niamh sees her mother Iona and her little brother Eamon under the shadow of a dangling sword, so she decides to help the rebels drive the oppressors from Naas. She now has to brave the consequences.
----
The 1798 rebellion left a permanent mark on the face of Irish history. Inspired by the American and French Revolutions, it was the chance that the Irish people sought to assert and solidify their independence from the British Empire. The rebellion ultimately failed for multiple complex reasons, and its direct result was the Act of Union of 1801, in which the United Kingdom absorbed Ireland. The Irish never forgot their ancestors' struggles, and the same rebel spirit revived in the early 20th century, when Ireland won its independence after multiple horrific and bloody conflicts. Setting the film before the rebellion openly broke out, allows us to explore a social structure and a family dynamic, in a time where everything is unsure, and every choice could have irreversible outcomes.
We couldn't be more excited to bring you this film now. It is about family, tough choices and conflict, in a country that knows about all three better than most. The disorder of a repressive control over the Irish people is where our rebellion starts and their fate rests on the actions they are yet to take. The dilemmas the people of this period had to face, might strike a familiar chord with more recent or current troubles. Conflict, after all, is where there are sides that raise walls. This is why we find it helpful to look to the past, and seek guidance from unsung heroes, like Niamh. A girl that, despite this terrible historical backdrop, continues to work, sing, fall in love, to feel afraid, angry, to question and lead her own way through all this to dream and hope.
