The 33rd Dáil was lead by a coalition government made up of Fianna Fáil (FF), Fine Gael (FG), and the Green Party. The largest opposition party was Sinn Féin (SF).

The General Election was held in November 2024 to elect the 34th Dáil. The election resulted in FF winning 48 seats, FG winning 38 seats, and the Green Party losing all but 1 seat. SF remained the largest opposition party. FF & FG were two seats shy of a majority in the Dáil which is necessary to form a government.

Method acting is a technique of acting in which heavy emphasis is placed on an actor fully inhabiting the role of the character. Examples of method acting include Robert DeNiro working as a taxi driver during the filming of Taxi Driver and Marlon Brando staying in a hospital bed for an entire month to get in the mindset of playing an injured veteran.

Classical acting is a technique in which heavy emphasis is placed on the external behavior of the performer, such as body language, dialect, facial expression, etc. A classical actor would focus less on "feeling the emotions" of a character, and instead focus on practising acting skills with which they can play the role.

Demigods are the children of gods in Greek mythology. Every demigod is either a child of the Big Three (Zeus, Poseidon, Hades) or a regular Demigod (children of the other nine Olympians).

There are very few children of the Big Three. They are significantly more powerful than Regular Demigods, they attract monsters (who can sense demigods) to a far larger extent, and they often feature in important prophecies.

The Gaeltacht is made up of the collective regions of Ireland where the Irish government recognises that Irish is the predominant vernacular (i.e. ordinary informal spoken language).

The Gaeltacht covers large areas of counties Donegal, Mayo, Galway and Kerry as well as smaller areas of counties Cork, Meath and Waterford. As of the 2022 Census, there were 106,220 people living in the Gaeltacht. In 2019, the Government categorised 26.9% of the Gaeltacht residents as ‘Disadvantaged’ or ‘Very Disadvantaged’.

You are Macbeth, Thane (Lord) of Glamis and subject to the King of Scotland, Duncan. Glamis is a small somewhat insignificant fiefdom (territory) and you are ambitous to rise beyond its rank. You are a fierce and widely admired warrior.

After deafeating the rebellious Thane of Cawdor in battle you are approached by three mysterious women who greet you firstly as Thane of Glamis, secondly as Thane of Cawdor, and finally as ""king hereafter"". Once they disappear you are surprised with the news that King Duncan has declared you the new Thane of Cawdor.

King Duncan is visiting your new castle at Inverness when your wife hears of this prophecy. She urges you to kill the King and pin the blame on his guards. This would leave you next in line for the throne.
