Hello everyone~
I've been lurking on these forums for a while now and I thought maybe I could start contributing. I've decided to start a TL where somehow Ireland gets to 'world power' level. I know the basics of the history but i'm far from an expert.
Two ideas I think could work are;
Replacing Britain - The cultural development of England happens in Ireland instead. I'm not too sure how that'd work, maybe for some reason Julius Caesar chooses to campaign in Hibernia/Ireland instead of Britannia?
In spite of Britain - Cultural development happens in Ireland faster than England, even if England does gain power. Not too sure how this would work either, unless maybe Brian Boru lives a while longer and manages to unify Ireland at an earlier time.
If there's any way to improve on those ideas, or there are better ones, i'm always up for help.
