Beginning with the Anglo Norman invasion of Ireland in 1169, he investigates how the Normans changed Irish life and why Gaelic Kings initially welcomed an English ruler. But it is also the story of an incomplete conquest. The English Crown only finally moves to impose its will in Ireland after the Protestant reformation places Ireland in the forefront of religious war. ==See Also== {{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Ireland|History of Ireland (Wikipedia)}} ==Trailer== ,,Full Version Available Upon Request,, {{ youtube> }} ==Full Version== \\ \\ ,,The availability of this link might be uncertain!,,\\ ,,Full version is available upon request.,, {{ youtube>RXJphT5iEV4 }} \\ \\ \\ {{tag>HD History Ireland Society Middle_Ages Science Archaeology BBC SER BBC_-_The_Story_of_Ireland_(2011) FF 2011 Ar03/15 Name}}
