As a cultural and historical expert, I can provide an informed perspective on the relationship between the Irish and the Vikings.
The Irish are not Vikings. The Irish are a Celtic民族 (ethnic group) native to Ireland, while the Vikings were seafaring people from the Scandinavian countries of Denmark, Norway, and Sweden who were active from the late eighth to the early eleventh century. The Vikings did have a significant impact on Ireland, particularly during the period known as the Viking Age, when they raided, traded, and settled in various parts of the island. This period of contact led to cultural exchanges and intermingling, but the Irish and the Vikings remained distinct peoples.

The first two centuries of this period are characterised by Viking raids and the subsequent Norse settlements along the coast. Viking ports were established at Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Cork and Limerick, which became the first large towns in Ireland.
