AHC: Irish Polynesia

[Chercha]

Have the Irish learn seafaring, spread out and settle various localities in the Atlantic the way the Austronesians did in the Pacific, the farther from Ireland the better (the Papar show that it is not all that far fetched). Bonus points if they make it to North America and manage to establish enduring contact, more bonus points if their voyages begin in the years BC.

 

[Paradoxer]

I had idea about Norse/Viking having their own version of Mohammed for its pagan faith before spreading across the North Sea and Isles. The Celts are often turned in thralls/slaves and transport them across the Atlantic as slaves in Northern America especially more northern parts.
