General Humbert and his small French Army landed in Killala Bay in 1798 after being invited by the united Irishmen, though many of his ships never arrived due to a terrible storm. Irish volunteers flocked to join the French forces, and the French won battles at Killala and Castlebar against large British opposition. However, the rebellion was short-lived, lasting just one month across four counties, before Humbert surrendered in Ballinamuck.

As the colonists emerged from their winter camps in 1779, they had gained valuable military training and were now confident in their ability to defeat the British. The focus of the war then shifted to the southern colonies, where the Continental Army faced difficulties fighting against loyalist colonists. While the British achieved some early victories in the south, American victories at Kings Mountain and Cowpens turned the tide. Finally, in 1781 General Washington and French allies trapped General Cornwallis' forces at Yorktown, cutting off escape by land and sea. After sustained bombardment, Cornwallis surrendered, effectively ending major military conflict in the American Revolutionary War.

Wolfe tone and the United Irishmen - 1798
Rich Anglican landowners controlled Ireland through the Protestant Ascendancy. Catholics and Presbyterians could not run for election and had to pay a religious tax to the Anglican Church. They also faced penal laws. The Irish Parliament was weaker than the British Parliament and could not pass laws without approval. Only Anglicans could run for election. Dissatisfied with this, Theobald Wolfe Tone established the United Irishmen society in 1791 to reduce English influence but it was banned and went underground. They planned a rebellion with French help but it failed due to lack of French support and British spies, crushing the movement. The 1798 rebellion started poorly and was defeated, with many leaders executed.
Types of lake
The document discusses different types of lakes categorized based on their nutrient levels and source. There are three main types: oligotrophic lakes which have very low nutrient levels and clear water; mesotrophic lakes which have moderate nutrient levels; and eutrophic lakes which have high nutrient levels and murky water. Other lake types include tectonic, volcanic, glacier, salty, artificial, oxbow, and meromictic lakes which have specific geological or environmental characteristics.
Lakes
Lakes are inland bodies of fresh water formed in depressions on the land surface. They are found all over the world but are most common in high latitude and mountainous regions. Lakes form through processes such as glacial erosion and deposition, shifts in the Earth's crust, volcanic activity, and landslides. Lakes stratify into layers based on water temperature and density. In temperate lakes, seasonal changes cause the layers to mix, replenishing oxygen levels. Lakes support a variety of plant and animal life adapted to different depths and oxygen conditions. Human activities can negatively impact lakes through pollution, development, and other disturbances.
stratification of water environments -
The document stratifies different aquatic biomes as follows:
1. Freshwater biomes include ponds, lakes, streams and rivers. Ponds and lakes are divided into littoral, limnetic and profundal zones. Streams and rivers have headwaters, middle sections and mouths.
2. Transitional waters between freshwater and saltwater include estuaries and wetlands. Wetlands are divided into mineral soil and organic soil types. Estuaries have four formation types.
3. Marine biomes include the intertidal zone, neritic zone, oceanic zone and benthic zone. The intertidal zone is the area between high and low tide lines with changing conditions

Ocean PPT
Here is a 45 minute lesson I created in Korea focusing on the Ocean. Students guessed words concerning the ocean, we discussed the BP oil spill, and students were then allowed to create their own ocean-dwelling creatures.
Ocean
The open ocean is the most extensive biome on Earth, covering over 360 million km2. It is divided into vertical zones based on factors like depth, light penetration, temperature, and pressure. The pelagic zone extends from the sea surface and is divided into epipelagic, mesopelagic, bathypelagic, and abyssopelagic zones. Phytoplankton in the epipelagic zone perform photosynthesis, while organisms in deeper aphotic zones rely on chemosynthesis. Human activities like overfishing, pollution, climate change, and habitat destruction threaten ocean ecosystems.
Mozart Powerpoint - pdf
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) was a child prodigy composer from Salzburg who toured Europe playing for royalty as a young boy. As an adult, he composed over 600 works, perfecting classical forms like the symphony, concerto, and opera. His masterpiece, Don Giovanni, was an innovative 1787 comic opera that used realistic characters and plotlines rather than mythology. It tells the story of the libertine Don Juan figure Don Giovanni and his comeuppance for constantly seducing and abandoning women.

United Irishmen
The document discusses the United Irishmen rebellion from the late 18th century. It summarizes the key events leading up to the rebellion including the American and French Revolutions. It then describes the two failed French invasions of Ireland in 1796 and 1798 aimed at supporting the United Irishmen. Both attempts resulted in battles between the French and British navies in Bantry Bay, Ireland. The document concludes by noting that rebellions often occur in response to tyrannical powers.
Hundred years war
The Hundred Years' War between England and France consisted of three phases from 1337 to 1453. The Edwardian phase saw English victories at battles like Crecy, Calais, and Poitiers led by Edward III and the Black Prince. The Caroline phase involved conflicts in Brittany and Spain. The final Lancastrian phase began with an English win at Agincourt but saw the tide turn with French victories at Patay and Formigny and the Siege of Orleans led by Joan of Arc, culminating in the final French victory at Castillon.
The Spanish Armada
The document summarizes the Spanish Armada sent by King Philip II of Spain in 1588 to invade England. It describes how Queen Elizabeth I and the English navy, led by Francis Drake and John Hawkins, defeated the larger Spanish fleet. The Spanish Armada, consisting of 131 ships and 20,000 soldiers under the command of the Duke of Medina Sidonia, was scattered by the English navy and half the ships were destroyed or lost, marking a significant victory for England over Spain.
Ireland neutrality
The document summarizes Ireland's policy of neutrality during World War 2. It discusses how Ireland declared neutrality in 1939 to avoid taking sides in the conflict and angering either side. The policy emphasized Ireland's independence but also caused economic hardships as imports were cut off. The government established rationing and departments to increase self-sufficiency. There were also threats to neutrality from the IRA and German spies. Overall neutrality helped Ireland avoid direct involvement in the war but also led to international isolation and stagnation in the postwar years.
Battle of the Plains of Abraham
The Battle of the Plains of Abraham was a pivotal battle in September 1759 that led to Britain gaining control of Canada. France and Britain were adversaries competing for territory and influence in North America. At the Plains of Abraham outside Quebec City, British General James Wolfe defeated French General Montcalm, capturing the important fortress of Quebec. Both Wolfe and Montcalm died from injuries sustained in the battle. The British victory resulted in France losing its North American colonies to Britain in the Treaty of Paris, marking a significant shift in colonial power in North America.

It then describes in more detail some of the battles the Anzacs and Irish fought together, including the Second Battle of Krithia, attacks on the Sari Bair range in August 1915, and the capture of Hill 60 in August 1915. The document aims to highlight the close association between Anzac and Irish forces during the Gallipoli campaign.
Unit 4.4 henry v battle of agincourt
Henry V was a popular king who worked to restore England's authority in France during the Hundred Years War. He successfully invaded and captured the port of Harfleur in northern France. However, his army was weakened by disease and faced harsh conditions as they marched towards Calais. At Agincourt, his outnumbered English forces used longbows and terrain to defeat a larger French army, achieving a decisive victory. This success led to further victories in France and eventually the Treaty of Troyes, whereby Henry would inherit the French throne upon the death of the mad King Charles VI, uniting England and France. However, Henry died of dysentery shortly before he could assume the throne.
The Plantations
Here are the key people from the document:
- Hugh O'Neill, Earl of Tyrone - Led the Nine Years War against Queen Elizabeth from 1594-1603 after feeling she was interfering in his lands. Asked Spain for help but was defeated at the Battle of Kinsale in 1601.

French and indian
The French and Indian War began as tensions rose between France and Britain over control of the Ohio River Valley in the 1750s. George Washington was sent to defend Fort Duquesne but was forced to surrender after his makeshift fort at Fort Necessity was attacked. While the French and Indian allies initially had success, Britain gained the upper hand after their victory at the Battle of Quebec in 1759. The war ended with the Treaty of Paris in 1763, which ceded French North American territories to Britain.
The British occupation of manila
The British fleet arrived in Manila Bay in September 1762 during the Seven Years' War between Britain and Spain. They informed the Spanish that they were under orders from King George III to capture Manila and demand their surrender. The British attacked Manila directly rather than the nearby port of Cavite first, recognizing that taking the capital would help them more easily capture other areas. The British occupation of Manila and surrounding regions lasted for two years, and brought some local support for British rule through rebellions.
The Spanish Armada
Philip II of Spain assembled a fleet of 130 ships called the Spanish Armada in 1588 with the goal of escorting Spanish troops from the Netherlands to invade England. The commander of the Armada was the Duke of Medina Sidonia, an aristocrat without naval experience. The English fleet, under better commanders like Francis Drake, harried the Armada as it sailed near England. Many Spanish ships were damaged and the Armada was scattered by fireships in a night attack. Unable to rendezvous with the Spanish troops in the Netherlands, the damaged Armada sailed around Scotland and Ireland in storms, losing over a third of its ships, in a decisive victory for English Protestantism over Spanish Catholic power.

Lesson 1
This document provides an overview of the French and Indian War between 1745-1775. It describes how tensions arose from colonial expansion and European powers vying for land in North America. The war began with clashes over forts in the Ohio River Valley. Though the British suffered early defeats, they gained victories in 1758 by capturing the fortress of Louisbourg and Fort Duquesne. A pivotal battle in Quebec in 1759 led to the fall of New France and the Treaty of Paris in 1763, which ceded French territories in North America to Britain.
After The Armada The Resilience And Resurgence Of The Spanish Monarchy Durin...
This document is a student paper analyzing the resilience of the Spanish monarchy during the Anglo-Spanish War following the defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588. It includes an introduction outlining Spain's vast empire in the 16th century and the growing tensions with England that led to war. The first chapter examines how, despite the Armada's defeat, Spain was able to recover its naval power through rearmament and technological development, moving away from Mediterranean galley warfare to ships suited for the Atlantic. Overall, the document argues that Spain adapted its naval capabilities and remained a formidable sea power after its high-profile loss to England.
American revolution 76
The document summarizes key events of the American Revolution from 1775-1783. It discusses several acts passed by the British Parliament that taxed the colonies, leading to unrest. Major battles are described, including Lexington and Concord, Saratoga, and Yorktown. International alliances played an important role, as France entered the war as an ally of the colonies in 1778 after the Battle of Saratoga. The Continental Navy had some successes but was generally ineffective against the British Navy. The war ended with the Treaty of Paris in 1783, recognizing American independence.
Plantations
The document summarizes the history of plantations in Ireland from the 16th to early 17th centuries. It explains that plantations involved confiscating land from rebellious Irish lords and native Irish and granting it to British settlers to spread English influence and customs. It discusses several plantation attempts, including in Munster following the Desmond Rebellion and the larger Ulster Plantation after the Flight of the Earls in the early 1600s. The plantations aimed to replace the native Irish population with loyal British subjects but met with mixed success.
Ireland during World War II
During World War 2, Ireland declared neutrality and took measures to avoid invasion or involvement in the war. This included increasing defense forces, implementing censorship, and cooperating with Britain on certain security issues. The economy suffered from shortages of supplies and inflation as Ireland struggled to maintain neutrality between the Allied and Axis powers. Neutrality strengthened Ireland's independence but reinforced the political partition with Northern Ireland.
Celt 3 novid breaking the union
The document summarizes anti-Irish sentiment in 19th century Britain through quotes from prominent British figures expressing derogatory and discriminatory views towards the Irish people. It led to the growth of the Irish revolutionary movement which began culturally but grew politically through organizations like the Gaelic League, Irish Volunteers, and the secret Irish Republican Brotherhood (IRB). This culminated in the 1916 Easter Rising in Dublin where republicans declared an Irish Republic independent of Britain for 6 days before surrendering. Though a military failure, it sparked Irish independence and the eventual establishment of the Irish Free State and modern Republic of Ireland.
The Spanish Armada
1. The document discusses the Spanish Armada of 1588, where Spain assembled a large fleet called the Spanish Armada to invade England and restore Catholicism.
2. The Spanish Armada battled against the English fleet led by Queen Elizabeth I and Sir Francis Drake.
3. After a series of battles and damage from storms, the Spanish Armada was defeated, marking the rise of English naval power and allowing England to pursue colonization of North America over Spain.

Humbert and his french army
- 1. Humbert and his French Army
- 2. In 1798 General Humbert landed in Killala Bay after an invitation from the united Irishmen. He had a small army with him. There was a terrible storm and a lot of his ships never made it to Ireland. They had to turn back due to the weather. This was a terrible blow to the Irish as they needed as much help as possible.
- 3. The Irish were still delighted with the support ‘The hilltops with glory were glowing, Twas the eve of a bright harvest day When the ships we’d been wearily waiting Sailed into Killala’s broad bay.’ (The Men of the West) Irish volunteers flocked to join the French Men. The battle of Killala commenced which was one by the French.
- 4. Next the army marched on to Lahardane via Ballina. Then they marched on to Castlebar. A battle known commenced which was also won by the French despite their very large British Army opposition. It became known as the ‘Races of Castlebar’ as British troops fled the town.
- 5. The rebellion continued. It was described as a ‘short fatiguing campaign’. It was played out over four counties. It lasted one month overall and consisted of a 100,000 British soldiers. Humbert surrendered in Ballinamuck, county Longford.
