In the movie Braveheart they portray the Irish and Scothish even though we did not talk about the Scotish, but the Irish and how they dont really talk about the Irish but in history they kind of touch up about the british being there and having british rule and trying to get rid of catholicism and turn everyone protestant like they are tring to do in scotland. So in the movie the english are invading scotland and trying to take over the country and make them work for them as slaves and telling them that when they capture them they are still free, but they have to do work. Sort of like in Takaki when the english went to Ireland and started to capture them to take them to America as slaves and even in the movie they touch on it a little bit and also near the end and their big battle the english have taken the Irish troops to be the first infantry against the scotish, but the scotish have an a couple Irishmen already on their side and so before the battle they meet the Irish and the Irishmen that were suppossed to be fighting for the english turn on them and start fighting for the scotish and their freedom. Like in Takaki what happened to Ireland and they had rebllious men and did not want to be taken prisoner under English rule so they fought and lost but they made into the slaves of England and this was before the great migration to America by the english it was another stop before everyone started to come to America to become prosperus and when they went to America they took the Irish as slaves to work for them and also they used the Irish to help build the railroads and other things, but they were not kept as slaves as long in America as the Africans.
