Verse:Irta/Ireland

In Irta, Ireland grew into a major European power by the 9th century, controlling all of the British Isles and stretching as far as the Pyrenees and just to the west of our Paris. The Irish empire was bordered by an Old French-speaking region to the southeast, which was in turn bordered by Hivantish tribal lands in Eastern Europe and Scandinavia.

Some Irish territory remained on Continental Europe into the 17th century. Irish heavily influenced Irta French, turning it into Hyperfrench with a quasi-Slavic phonology, and influenced Hivantish as well.

"What if Joseon was Irish-speaking"

Early Middle Ages

The early medieval ard-rí was a figurehead over autonomous regional sub-kings. The ard-rí role became more centralized in response to a need for cooperation and centralization among the Irish-speaking tribes in response to external forces? However, Gaels still retained a clan-based system, like our Joseon; we could model some features of the Irish empire after Joseon

The bardic schools have one additional level which was required to become the Árdrí's poet, called the árdfhilidhe (árdfhilí)?

The árdrí was still elected by tanistry

The Taking of Britain

The Brythonic assimilate to the Gaelic speakers, except those who went to the mainland who became Galoyseg speakers; some Irta Irish surnames should be Brythonic

Continental Ireland

Ruled by Gaelic clans who went to the mainland; one became the "Ard-Rí of the Gaels," though it was still a quasi-feudal, clan-based society

Late Middle Ages

Expulsion of Jews from Continental Ireland (12th-13th c.)

Middle Irish-speaking Tsarfati Jews migrated to Central and Eastern Europe, and their language became Ăn Yidiș

Post-Remonition

During the 16th and the 17th centuries, the two Remonitions occurred and Ireland lost all of its mainland territory in the ensuing religious wars by the 17th century. Ireland could still become a colonial power, explaining the presence of Irish in the Americas and the mainly Catholic Anatolian region of Irta's Arab world --- or maybe Irtan Maltese? (Formal Irta Anatolian Arabic is syntactically Irishy)
