Made up this alternate history idea for a story I may make about with Ireland dealing with a small Irish Empire

The place that would seperate this world from our own takes place during the Battle of Clontarf in April 1014 where Brian Boru (High King of Ireland who actually conquered most of the island) against Sigtrygg Silkbeard, Máel Mórda, who was the King of Leinster, and the Vikings of Orkney and Mann.

The divergence that does occur is when Brian Boru is praying in his tent when Brodir, a Viking warrior from the Isle of Mann, attacks him. Historically Brian was killed in his tent, but instead Boru has time to fight back and kill him. After the battle with his victory secured Brian Boru determins that he can continue to rule only through his son and grandson. He spent his final years tutoring them and establishing centralized training grounds for national armies. As Donnchad mac Briain and Toirdelbach Ua Briain come to the Irish kingship, they are able to solidify there control over the many petty kingdoms of Ireland and allow a centralised government to form conqueror most of Scotland by 1030 and they find allies against the common enemy, the Vikings, with the Normans, who recently conquered England fifty two years after the Battle of Clontarf. Soon after 1100, Irish princess Blathmin marries Stephen to become the queen consort of England, the first of many Irish rulers over the neighboring English. Ireland naturally becomes the center for Norse activity in the British Isles until the early 1300s.

The unified Irish then soon become among the first to follow Norman knights to the Crusades. Over the next decades, the campaigns would ultimately fail despite the combined forces of Christendom, but the returning crusaders bring back spices and technology that caused a hunger for more trade. The Kingdom of Ireland in response builds a sophisticated system of investment and shipwrights to transport their warriors to the Middle East and parts of the coast of Northern Africa, and these are turned to an sort of small Irish merchant navy. This also begins the slow creation of what would be called the Seaman's Court (Mairnéalaigh Cúirte). The merchants who make up this small assembly also provide a little more than half of the kingdom's tax revenues.

After being driven out of the Mediterranean by Iberian and fleets, the Irish turn south toward the African coast, trying to gain the few small islands they could get from the Portugese Empire with what remains of their depleted and undermanned fleet. The few Irish trading posts there are given up after the discovery of a New World across the Atlantic, where the Kingdom of Ireland become's wealthies through small coastal colonies based around small cities in what would be called Newfoundland, Quebec, and Nova Scotia, capitalizing on the fur trade.

This little timeline I will make, possibly on NS, would make Europe very...weird in a sense. With the Protestant Reformation not being as powerful since the Irish Kings dominate most of England physically, culturally, and militarilly, Catholicism is far more power, so only mainly the Holy Roman Empire and a few other "strongholds" or isolated parts like in Poland and near Dover

Yes.

Anglicanism is when henry decided he wasn't catholic anymore, and made his own branch of protestantism in england.

Anglo Saxons where the original migrants into england in the 5th - 9th century so Anglo basically means english.

The Kingdom of Ireland would be mostly either Catholic because of early Papal influence during the "Dark Ages" or follow Celtic Christianity, so many parts of Europe are starting to lag behind due to Papal influence and corruption while Ireland would still be able to advance

Civilisunio is based in an alternate history where America loses the civiI war, but instead of fighting for slave the confederacy fought for rights. Europe is also a tad different but I rather not get into that at the moment.

Mostly due to there be a semi centralised "Celtic Church" that is mostly broken off from the Roman Catholic Church, and many ideas from the former Norse and Vikings due to there advanced views on sailing, exploration, trade, and ship consturction

Interesting! Unfortunately I am not that familiar with the history of Ireland in the 11th century CE, but I think this idea is worth pursuing. If the Irish Empire continues to survive into the colonial era and perhaps beyond into the industrial age and beyond, the world today might be quite different, given the large role in our timeline of the British Empire in world affairs over the past several centuries.

Another difference would be in languages. Modern English, which I've heard described as "Ancient Germanic with most of the words replaced by French", has borrowed many thousands of words from countless languages which were then spread to other cultures around the world. The Irish Empire would have spread different languages and words. As a result many English - speaking peoples around the world today might speak Gaelic instead, or even a language that does not exist at all in our timeline.

That's the problem. I wanted to write a story out of it, but what language do I write it in? Ireland itself in this timeline would probably have "pulled a Belgium", in which a small country gets a small but decent sized empire. After the deaths of Brian Boru's son and grandson who knows what could have happened, it's simpily not in our control to even have a partial speculation upon due to the lack of information I can find and how would have what children. I could write a timeline just for TMC on this, starting at 1014 and ending in 1800

To be honest if Ireland does remain in existance in that universe up to 2016 as one country they probably could be speaking possibly a weird mix of French or German. To be honest I am really pushing how realistic this Empire gets without getting screwed over a hundred or so years later, but the British Isles would be a interesting subject of debate, including what the New World would look like. I would not mind if this became a regional alternate history timelapse, as it could be fun to do, invent new types of religious denominations, or even languages.

Asturias And Leon

Also now that I think about it I am pretty sure that no matter what condition Ireland and the lands of the "British Isles" would be probably Scandanavian ish. The Normans transformed English into what it is today, but since somehow in the timeline I made Ireland (or whatever country rules it would be called) made allies with them to stop Norse raids. English would probably in a way "exist" as something, but probably almost non recogonizable. I can't answer what the world language would be, but I can assume if Irish Kings controlled England, Wales, etc, then it would be a battleground for Norman French, Scandanavian languages, Gaelic, different types of German probably, and dialects would still play something as well

Asturias And Leon

well yeah, english comes from anglo saxon and norman.

and anglo saxon comes from saxon, which is germanic, and norman was a form of french, and so both norman and french come from latin.

it would be cool though if scotand and britain and wales where all taken over by the vikings, and where norse pagan and such, leaving ireland the only christian kingdom in the north.

I do have a idea popping up. There is a book I have read called The Years of Rice and Salt, it is divided into ten parts, the story spans hundreds of years, from the army of the Muslim conqueror Timur to the 21st century, with Europe being re-populated by Muslim pioneers, the indigenous peoples of the Americas forming a league to resist Chinese and Muslim invaders, and a 67-year-long world war being fought primarily between Muslim states and the Chinese and their allies. While the ten parts take place in different times and places, they are all somehow connected. Could we do something like this on the Irish Empire?
