Irish

Irish belongs to Celtic language family, which is closely related to Scottish Gaelic and Welsh in the same language family, and there are still many similarities. Early Irish history appeared in the form of literature, mainly including "poetry" and "history", as well as heroic epics. Christianity was introduced into Ireland in the 5th century. At the beginning of the Middle Ages, Ireland was not invaded by the war that destroyed the Roman Empire, and has always been a Christian learning center isolated from the outside world. 6- 1 1 century, when the European continent was still in the dark Middle Ages, Irish priests established religious learning centers all over Europe, so Ireland was called "the island of scholars and scientists".
