1. Notes on Ireland
==============================
(a) Irishmen in Service of the British Empire
Source:
Can Irish citizens serve in foreign militaries?
Michael Collins,
https://www.quora.com/Can-Irish-citizens-serve-in-foreign-militaries
Most famously, perhaps, were the number of Irishmen fighting for Britain against Napoleon at the turn of the nineteenth century. Somewhere between 33% and 55% of the Royal Navy and British Army were made up of Irish-born or Irish-heritage recruits, possibly because of economic times, true, but also because of the 1800 Act of Union that had made Ireland part of the United Kingdom. Furthermore, these men were led by one of the most famous of Irishmen in British uniforms: Sir Arthur Wellesley, the Duke of Wellington.
A significant number of Irish people, of all backgrounds, have served in the forces of the British Crown over the centuries. By the end of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th century, well over one-third of the military forces of the British army consisted of Irishmen

Ireland had a larger population compared to today. In 1800, Ireland's population was eight million, not far below the population of England at ten million, a ratio of 1:1.25. By 1900 this ratio had fallen to 1:12. The immediately pre- and post-1900 enlistment was proportionately very high, even though the absolute numbers seem low.

The Victoria Cross, the British Crown's highest award for military valour, has been awarded to 188 persons who were born in Ireland or had full Irish parentage. Of these thirty were awarded in the Crimean War, 52 in the Indian Mutiny, and 46 in numerous other British Empire campaigns between 1857 and 1914. In the 20th century, 37 Irish VCs were awarded in the First World War, ten in the Second World War. One has been awarded in Afghanistan in the 21st century to a Belfast-born soldier of the Parachute Regiment.
==============================
(b) Fomorians. Ireland Covered by Dense Forests
https://www.quora.com/Was-Ireland-invaded-4-times-as-per-their-book-of-invasions
Keating explains about the Fomorians

One example of this is what Keating had to say about the Fomorians, one of the races that were supposed to invade Ireland. Keating concluded that the people referred to as the Fomorians did not self-identify as such, that is to say they did not call themselves that name, it was given to them by others. Keating said that this, the very first people to live in Ireland, were distinguished by living close to the coast. They could only live here because Ireland had a thick, impenetrable forest until the start of farming. These Mesolithic (or Middle Stone Age) migrants to Ireland were primitive, nomadic, and lived mostly on fish.

The meaning of Fomorian

Their identity given by later settlers to them (or their descendants) of 'Fomorians', according to Keating comes from the words 'fo', translating as 'close to' (even in current day Irish that word means 'under'), and 'maris', translating as 'sea'. The name of Fomorians gives the wrong idea; it is unlikely that the coastal-dwelling, hunter-gatherer settlers all shared a common identity. There was no single Fomorian people; different communities around Ireland's coast would have different languages, religious beliefs and different customs.

(c) Irishmen Overseas
Source:
Why do so many people have Irish ancestry?
Michael Collins
In 1890 40% of Irish-born people were living abroad. By the 21st century, an estimated 80 million people worldwide claimed some Irish descent, which includes more than 36 million Americans who claim Irish as their primary ethnicity . Even today in todays Ireland 17% of Irish born people live outside the state making it the largest percentage of any country in the world .
75% of Irish-born people living abroad are in Britain
There are also approx 1.7 million who were born to Irish parents
Third generation Irish community in Britain could be in the region of 6 million

United States (census 2000)
10.8% of the total US population claim Irish ancestry - the equivalent of 7 times the population of Ireland itself
Irish-born people in the US numbered 156,000
States with the largest Irish-American population were: California, New York, Pennsylvania, Florida, Illinois
Irish-Americans were the largest ancestral group in Washington DC, Delaware, Massachusetts and New Hampshire
==============================
(d). Irish Losses in Potato Famine
https://www.quora.com/Why-did-Irish-people-immigrate-to-the-USA-in-the-19th-century-in-such-a-huge-number
Between 1845 and 1849, the population of Ireland fell from 8 million to about 6 million due to death and emigration, both of which were by-products of the Great Potato Famine. As potatoes rotted in the fields, starvation spread throughout the land along with associated diseases such as typhus and dysentery. The only escape for many Irish was to immigrate to America and by 1850 nearly a million of them had done just that.
==============================
(e) Irishmen in British Service World War -2
https://www.quora.com/Is-it-true-that-the-Irish-let-German-U-boats-dock-in-Ireland-during-WW2
Also, although servicemen in the Irish Army who went AWOL to join the allied forces were punished there is a wider, less publicised, story. At the start of the war the Irish Army began a major recruitment drive. In two years they had put 120,000 men through basic training, but only had weapons, barracks etc for about 40,000. The rest were demobbed after basic training. On the point of their discharge they were then given a talk by a senior Irish Army Officer, who typically would encourage them to do their bit and join the 'Brits', he would then give a ferry ticket to Britain to each demobbed man. What people do not realise now is that many Irish Army regulars at this time were ex-British army (especially the officers). They may have fought each other in the War of Independence, but there was considerable mutual respect.

2. Scotsmen Dominate British Elite Army Units
https://www.quora.com/Is-it-true-that-the-SAS-has-a-disproportionately-high-amount-of-Scottish-men-as-opposed-to-English-Welsh-and-Northern-Irish-men
Yes. John McAleese and Eddie Stone, former SAS operatives said scots make up about 70% of the SAS. Don't know if he meant the 22nd regiment only, or the entire Special Air Service. suprised me.
I knew most SAS recruits come from PARA and most of PARA is scottish, but i didn't think the percentage would be that high

3. All USA Presidents descended from British Royalty!
Is it true all U.S. Presidents are descendants of Henry the VIII of England?
by Dave Hogg
Answer:
All American presidents (including Barack Obama) are descended from both Alfred the Great and William the Conqueror, but not Henry VIII. Martin Van Buren is the only president who isn't also descended from King John (yes, the bad guy from Robin Hood), but he was descended from Alfred and William down different lines.

4. Historical Example. Evolution Reversed. From Iron Age to Stone Age
What might cause an Iron Age society to regress to the Stone Age?
by Alberto Yagos, Born in Spain

Getting isolated in a zone poor in metals

Historical example: the Canary Islands.
The Islands were colonized by Berbers twice: in the 6th century BC and in the early 1st century AD (this time by Romanized Berbers). The colonizers even brought their animals: cattle and sheep.
But the new territory has no accessible metals and the new civilization that arose (guanches) was Neolithic: they lived in little tribes, with reduced agriculture, using tools made of bone, stone and wood.
Even when they had scripture, they lost the knowledge of building ships (when the ones that brought them to the islands could carry animals like cows). The Islands became isolated one of the other.
When an Italian explorer discovered them in the 14th century, they were living in the Stone Age.

6. America. Most Noble Places Amongst the Ends of the Earth
http://hebrewnations.com/articles/biblical-proof/geo/geoends.html#bb
Isaiah linked the Ten Tribes with the end(s) of the world and with the most noble parts of it.
e.g "But thou Israel, my servant Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham my friend...Whom I have taken from the ENDS OF THE EARTH and called thee from the most noble parts hereof" (Isaiah 41:8-9).
The Hebrew word "Atzil" is related to the Nordic "Aedil" meaning noble. So too, in Exodus 24:11 the plural of atzil is translated as nobles, "the nobles of the children of Israel".

Nearly everywhere the Israelites from the Ten Tribes settled was an area that physically was preferable to other regions.

"Van Loon's Geography. The Story of the World, " by Hendrik Willen Van Loon, New York, 1932, p. 454
#... from a geographical point of view, America is almost everything that possibly could be desired....
It has practically no deserts. It has been blessed with wide plains which are situated in the moderate zone and which therefore are predestined to become the world's granaries.
It has a coastline which is neither too simple nor too complicated and which is therefore eminently fitted for the establishment of deep-sea harbors...
More than any other continent it is blessed with coal and iron and oil and copper and those other raw materials which the machine age needs in ever increasing quantities.
It was practically uninhabited when the white man arrived (there were only 10,000,000 Indians on the whole continent) and there was therefore no teeming native population...#
