Because the Irish definitely didn't go out to be colonists....

Yeah, good point! The sun never set on the... Irish empire? And all those countries around the world that celebrate independence from Ireland. And gaelige, that worldwide language, spoken in all the former colonies. The Irish museums, full of antiquities rescued from the locals around the world.

They're really just a shower of bastards with good PR!

Well at least a good few of them went off to colonize America. And didn't give that one back, either, unlike India and friends.
