Technically, the culture of Ireland was not feudal inn the way that the
mainland or even England was feudal. Comparisons with it's culture and
mainland European culture is for the most part an exercise in futility. There
is a very good program about Ireland on the History Channel now called "A
Short History of Ireland" which gives a very good basic understanding about
Ireland and it's people. It was an eye opener for me.
