The Spanish empire during the early 16th century were spreading catholicism and trying to convert non-catholics to be catholic in the Americas and around Europe. The Incan empire was very large and powerful, but they did not have technological advantages over the Europeans. Francisco de Xeres, a historian and a personal secretary of Francisco Pizarro, wrote The Reports on the Discovery of Peru, a book published in 1534.

In the 16th century, Henry VIII turned England into a Protestant country, but most of the Irish people remained Catholic. Being that no one listened to the king, he sent in soldiers to push them to change religions. The land owners fled their land when the soldiers came in. New protestant colonists came in to settle on the island. The Catholics rebelled and tried to get their country back, but were not successful and were left without power and land. While Great Britain gained full control of the whole island in the 19th century, Ireland has joined Wales, England, and Scotland to become the United Kingdom.

During the Iron Age, there was a general consolidation of territories and kingdoms. Most of these territories had a defended hilltop fort as their Centre of power.

Most of these were constructed around the 2nd century BC.”

A legend like the United Kingdom is not simply created, it was foraged through hardships and tribulations in order to become an unstoppable force of nature. According to the Encyclopedia Britannica after many conquests by an Anglo-Saxon king, Ireland fell under English rule and formally joined Great Britain in 1800 with the Act of Union.

Stonehenge was a stone structure established a long time ago by civilizations before the Druid age. More than 4,000 years ago, the people of the Neolithic period supposedly decided to build a massive monument using earth, timber and eventually, stones.They placed it high on Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire, England about 137 kilometres southwest of London. The purpose to build Stonehenge still remains a mystery. Stonehenge could have been a temple, an astronomical calendar, or a guide to the heavens. Stonehenge acts as a prehistoric timepiece, allowing us to speculate on what it would have been like during the Neolithic Period, and who could have built this megalithic wonder.
