Based on some ancient tales from Ireland, the terrible curse of Macha was what led to the debility of the Ulstermen in the years that ensued. In the traits of a human, the Irish goddess Macha came down to earth to live with a man named Cruinniuc, who later boasted about her to the king Connor. To make right of her husband's silly boast, Macha was forced to race against horses while being pregnant with twins to save her husband's life, which she won in the agony of labor pains. For failing to use their strength to protect her against it, the goddess Macha cursed the warriors of Ulster for nine times and nine generations that their strength will be useless to them in their time of greatest need, when danger would threat the survival of the province of Ulster, men of Ulster would suffer the pains of childbirth and would last for four nights and five days. Macha's curse will later strike the Ulstermen in the Ulster cycle with weakness, in the epic of the Cattle raid of Cooley when queen Maeve tried to invade Ireland. Only a single warrior, the half-god Cu Chulainn was able to resist the opposing army on his own. The capital of Ulster would become to be known as Emain Macha, which translates into ''The twins of Macha'', and will later be called Navan Fort, with ''Navan'' being the Anglicized form of Emain. ---------------------------------- 🔴► Please Subscribe if you like this content, which allows the channel to grow ► https://bit.ly/2Zf0KpF 🔴►Listen on Spotify► https://open.spotify.com/show/0WdWsgQ... 🔴►Listen on Anchor.fm► https://anchor.fm/afro-emperor-myths 🔴► Music by Myuu Channel    / @myuu   Music    • Disintegrating - Myuu   🔴► Join me on Twitter :   / afroemperor1   🔴► DONT CLICK THIS 😈 https://bit.ly/2Zf0KpF 🔴► Sources of images & Artists Featured -- Tatiana Krasnorutskaia https://www.artstation.com/artwork/0n... -- Howard David Johnson https://www.howarddavidjohnson.com/cu... 🔴► Contact me if i have used your Artwork, and the proper credits will be given Thank you! 🔴► Check some Playlists made for you. --► African Mythology Explained    • African Myths Explained   --► Egyptian Mythology Explained    • Egyptian Mythology Explained   --► Irish & Celtic Mythology Explained    • Irish & Celtic Folklore Explained   --► Greek Mythology Explained    • Greek Mythology Explained   --► Norse Mythology Explained    • Norse Mythology Explained   --► Japanese Mythology Explained    • Japanese Folklore Explained   --► Hindu Mythology/Religion Explained    • Hindu Mythology Explained   --► Mythical Bestiary & Creatures    • Mythical Creatures   --► Storytelling & Urban Legend    • Storytelling & Urban Legends   --► Afro Emperor Complete List    • Afro Emperor ALL Myths And Legends   🔴► Share the video Anywhere you possibly can, and enjoy with your friends. 🔴► SUBSCRIBE To our Channel Afro Emperor ► https://bit.ly/2Zf0KpF #Macha #CurseOfMacha #IrishMythology #EmainMacha #Ulster #Ulstermen #CelticMythology #Celtic #History #Mythology #lore #legend
