7. Dukes of Desmond - Ireland EU4 Meiou and Taxes Lets Play - Part 7
9For this series, I will form Ireland, conquer Britain and Scotland and colonize North America, with some further conquests afterwards as well.
Ireland in the 1350s was a fractured mess, split between various Gaelic Clans. We will have to conquer the other Irish powers, then reduce the influence of the tribes. After the tribes are weakened, we can form Ireland and look to expand outside of our island to the East in England and to the west in North America. Together we will forge a new destiny for Ireland!
The mod is Meiou and Taxes for Europa Universalis 4 and the submod is the court and education mod. These can be found on Paradox's forums.

The Kingdom of Desmond was a medieval kingdom lasting from 1118 to 1606. The kings of Desmond were the MacCarthy’s, who ruled for the entirety of the Kingdom’s history and whose seat was Blarney Castle. Like the other Irish powers on the Ireland, the MacCarthy’s attempted to resist English domination over the island. In the 1530s King Henry the 8th of England started the English conquest of Ireland, which was carried on and completed by his successors Mary I and Elizabeth I.
In 1602 an Irish alliance that was supported by the Spanish was defeated at the Siege of Kinsale, effectively ending Irish resistance to England’s attempts at conquest. Gaelic resistance was crushed and the Irish ruling class fled to continental Europe allowing England to assume power in much of the Island. In 1606 Desmond was separated into two counties: County Cork in the south and County Kerry in the north. Irish resistance carried on intermittently
