I'm Ojibwe, we're one of the Indigenous nations of Canada. When I heard the story in the news about the Irish making a large donation to the Najavo Nation, it blew me away that a nation so far away would be so kind to a distant unknown native tribe in the middle of nowhere in America. I had no idea it was a thank you for a donation to the Irish people during the famine that forced many to emigrate from their homeland. When I researched more about the history of Ireland, I saw how they also suffered under centuries of colonialism just as we did. The Irish are an Indigenous people and a warrior culture as we are. I hope one day they can reclaim their historical identity, spirituality, and connection to the land which made the ancient Celts so strong.
Respect.

France did not exist yet at the time. so Julius Caesar could certainly not have conquered it, the country he conquered was called Gaul. France would only get born five centuries later, when German tribes would settle in this part of the Roman Empire and the Franks would create a Kingdom which would eventually get known as France in later centuries.

for more detailed stuff about the celts, I highly recommend The British History Podcast. it's a super thorough telling of the history of Great Britain, from prehistory to the dawn of WWII. 351 episodes in, the host is still only talking about King Knut.

Fun fact:
Boadicea (4: 17) inspired Enya to make a chilling song of the same name. Which later was sampled by the Fugees to make a hip hop song called Ready or Not.

Um, excuse me? A Celtic queen rallies her tribes after the death of her husband, and dies in battle nearly defeating Julius Caeser? WHERE IS HER MOVIE HOLLYWOOD?

Alexander had never seen anything like these tall, fierce-looking warriors-
The animation: proceeds to show a dwarf, a middle-sized man and only one tall guy

0: 55 I understand the Hallstatt Culture in Austria is regarded as Proto-Celtic, so I guess the Celts originate in Central Europe.

What a terrible video. Have the researchers never heard of the Pictish people, Scotland, Antonines Wall and Hadrians Wall?
