They were composed mostly of Catholics from Louth and Drogheda. Fought in various campaigns including the Boer War. They were formed long after the Battle of the Boyne. I believe Loyalists have a very limited understanding of British culture and history. Irish Republicans a very limited understanding of Irish culture and history.
The site of the battle of the Boyne is now in the Republic of Ireland similar to how much of the Sindhu River (Indus) is now in "Pakistan" despite the name India being commonly associated with the political entity many know as India.
The style of this song made me think of the 1950s or 1960s, and indeed it is from 1959, intended as a response to "The Battle of New Orleans". It was by by Mike Darrow And The CHUMs and the single on which it appeared was Apex 76550.
It genuinely amuses me how ignorant some people are of history and actually think that Cromwell was anywhere close to being somewhat of a half decent human being.
They say not to destroy the union jack, yet they still burn irish flags on bonfires. kinda stupid. Anyways, im glad you lot are embracing irish culture with those traditional irish instruments!
And you will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. -Jeremiah 29:13 “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life. -John 3:16 Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out. -Acts 3:19 If you are in North America, please go check out any of the churches available to you: PCA, OPC, Rpcna, Urcna, or a Canrc church. (These are conservative and actual Reformed/Presbyterian churches) If you’re Scottish, I recommend the Free Church of Scotland and the APC (Different from the Church of Scotland) If you’re English I recommend the Evangelical Presbyterian Church in England & Wales and the Free Church of England.

The daughter of my parents Dutch friends, here in Australia, named her daughter after the Rod Stewart song Maggie May. When my Scouse parents told their friends the Liverpool meaning they weren't impressed.
Britain has a very diverse history of multiple cultures from the Britons,Romans, Anglos, Normans. To say the English and British identity are not a mixture of different cultures over the time, would be a complete lie. The English language has many different grammatical rules and vocabulary borrowed from different languages that it makes a unique culture distinct from Britains eproupean contemporarys it is truly a modern Latin in the sense that it has connections to other languages but not influencing rather being influenced by the other languages
