    It's because Ireland is cooler.

    Or maybe because St. Patrick's Day is more widely celebrated worldwide than other national saints' days.

    Some dissidents still are fighting.

    I'm Catholic, what would happen to me if I proclaimed that fact in a Ranger's pub In Glasgow?

    Hmmm...

    No, that's the point. We aren't the only country fighting over religion as you said previously.

    Back on-topic, Evony chose Thanksgiving because the majority of their players celebrate it even though other countries don't because it has nothing to do with them. There are St. Patrick's Day parades all over the world but St. George's, Andrew's and David's Days aren't celebrated worldwide. In fact, 40 million American people claim Irish ancestors, so that's another reason for it.

    There are large populations of people in Britain & US who can claim Irish decent.

    True there have been troubles in Ireland, Northern Ireland in particular which were caused by religion not race. Actually the Brits & Irish are pretty similar in many cultural ways.

    Anyway because of the Irish descendent's across the world St Patrick's Day is celebrated globally. This is why Evony have given us this special package.

    Thanks to Infinitus for the epic B'day pressie!

    Ok, about Ireland, that's between Catholics and Protestants. And about whiskey, I think you're right, it is Scottish.
