Irish flag the Shamrock (Irish symbol)
Potato blight In the mid-nineteenth century the potato crops  (récoltes)   were destroyed by a disease. As it was the only source of food for poor Irish people,  many people starved to death*.  It is estimated that more than a million died and as a consequence many emigrated to the USA,  Australia and England. *  (mourir de faim) The Trail of Tears
The Choctaw Donation  In 1847, The Choctaw tribe  (tribu)  of American Indians sent a generous donation to the starving Irish.  They had a special affinity with the hungry and those who had lost their homes because it was only 16 years since their tribe had walked the «  Trail of Tears  »*  from Mississippi to Oklahoma. This extraordinary gift  (cadeau)  from a people who were not themselves wealthy   (= rich) has never been forgotten. In 1997 – the 150 th  anniversary of that generous gesture - a group of Irish people walked the Trail of Tears in reverse, back to the Choctaw homeland. ( *  ' La Piste des Larmes' = forced removal  (déplacement)  of Native Americans (Indians) by the US government)
