Hurling

Troy O'Sullivan here to talk about hurling here in Ireland. Hurling is the most typically Gaelic of Ireland's national games. It's an extremely fast sport played with two teams of fifteen. The goal posts resemble the ones used in rugby. Each half in a game is thirty minutes and thirty-five in semi-final and finals games. In the south there are extremely violent matches.

Irish Music

Hey, it's Troy O'Sullivan again to tell you about Irish music. Ireland is the only country with a musical instrument as its national emblem-the harp. Traditional song and dance are the most vibrant part of our culture. The oldest form of Irish music is generally called sean-nos' singing is a highly ornate, unaccompanied, individual style associated for the most part with songs in Irish. Traditional songs in English include national ballads and native Hiberno-English songs.

Hugh Jass here

Hey its hugh Jass today i want to talk about the famous anne frank. Anne Frank was born in the city of Frankfurt am main Weimar Germany but she mostly lived her life in Amsterdam. She was born June 12th 1929 and died in Early March in 1945 in a concentration camp during wwII. Her house is a museum in Amsterdam and its a good tourist place, so if your wondering where to go in Amsterdam than you must go here.

Belgium Flag

Hey guys! I haven't talked a lot about Belgium's history, so I wanted to tell everyone about my new found knowledge on the flag. Belgium's flag is black, gold, and red stripes in a vertical pattern. The flag was created based on France's flag. Belgium adopted the flag to show its independence and the colors of the flag represent the coat of arms. The country adopted the flag on January 23, 1831. The flag's colors are shown in the coat of arms, the gold stands for the lion, the black is the shield, and the red is the lion's tongue and claws. Hope you enjoyed learning about Belgium's flag!
