The Irish military diaspora refers to the many people of either Irish birth or extraction (see Irish diaspora) who have served in overseas military forces, regardless of rank, duration of service, or success. Many overseas military units were primarily made up of Irishmen (or members of the Irish military diaspora) and had the word 'Irish', an Irish place name or an Irish person in the unit's name. 'Irish' named military units took part in numerous conflicts throughout world history.〔Harris, R.

A notable example is that of Owen Roe O'Neill. ==Austria and Austria-Hungary== * Major Peter Martyn * Franz Moritz Graf von Lacy * Andreas Graf O'Reilly von Ballinlough * Maximilian Ulysses Graf von Browne * Laval Graf Nugent von Westmeath * Maximilian Graf O'Donnell von Tyrconnell * Gottfried Freiherr von Banfield 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Irish military diaspora」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
