You should change the thread heading.
The first flight of the Earls was in 1607 The Irish Nobles who held feudal privilege over tracts of land left Ireland hoping to return.
And that's your analysis of 'The Flight of Earl's',one line!
why did they leave Ireland if they enjoyed this Feudal privilege?
who were they?
what were they hoping to do if they returned?
what were the Behon Laws?
how were the high kings (Earls) elected in this so called feudal system?
The 1607 earls are dead and gone

It is the current mob of Fianna Fail made Earls that are running this country into the ground, that have an influence on the lives of our people, by indenturing them to pay a ransom for the rest of their lives.
