I watched it and I really liked it. The only thing is, I know many historical events like that are blown out of proportion by popular myth. With the series tightened the timeline, so many of them people died that way.

I thought it might have a semi happy ending, but then I asked myself "how did you expect something like that to end?"

It was hard watching that cycle of violence.

“It was hard watching that cycle of violence”

I agree and I personally think that was the point. On night 2, I said aloud, “When will enough BE ENOUGH?” Then I thought that this is what extreme hate can do. When “to get even” takes over every bit of soul and cell in oneself.. it becomes a cancer of sorts. Well, that is what I got out of it. Maybe I read too deeply into things....

That scene at the hanging really brought it all together about how long it went on and how pointless the whole thing was.

“Why are they famous?”

“For killing each other.”
