[02:40.03]Programmes on the radio and TV are in Welsh.

[02:51.81]There used to be a lot of coal mines in the south,

[04:47.43]IRELAND

[04:50.77]Long ago, the first travellers 10 went to Ireland from Scotland,

[04:56.54]and later from the south and west of Europe.

[05:00.80]They found that much of the land was poor.

[05:05.16]But there was enough grass for sheep and cows,because it rained so much.

[05:11.54]The seas around Ireland were full of all sorts of fish.

[05:16.68]Many of the peasants 11 were very poor.

[05:20.65]They lived mainly on potatoes.

[05:24.49]Around 1850,a terrible disease 12 hit the potato crop,

[05:30.14]and potatoes went bad in the soil.

[05:33.90]Tens of thousands of people died of hunger.

[05:38.73]Many had to leave Ireland

[05:42.36]and travelled to Britain or to North America to look for a better life.

[05:47.92]Although many families became separated,

[05:52.29]people still kept in touch with each other.

[05:56.73]Today,life has improved for the population,

[06:01.30]although many farmers in the west continue to lead a simple life.
