So, after reading many wonderful TLs on this forum, I have decided I want to try out an idea of my own. The main idea:
What would be the consequences of a mass exodus of Irish to the New World during the Tudor conquest of Ireland?
In ome sense this TL will be a bit of an Irish-wank as I'm trying to create a situation where the dominant culture in the new world is Irish, although this will only happen because the Irish get there asses kicked a number of times during the 16th and 17th centuries, causing this exodus to occur.
As many folks have commented on previous threads, an Irish empire centered in Ireland isn't going to happen. My goal is to create an Irish empire centered in the New World. Basically a USA but with Gaelic rather than English as the official langauge.

So I'm as much as I'm admitting that this TL may be a little bit wank-y, I'm also trying to create something feasible and realisitc. Thus, I would appreciate any criticism as to anything I'm putting in here that may be not so possible. So, please, anyone, I'd LOVE feedback.
