Historical background
The conflict intensified in the 17th century, when the English Protestant rulers confiscated land from Irish Catholic landowners and replaced them with Protestant settlers from England and Scotland. This led to a deep-seated resentment among Irish Catholics, who felt that their rights and interests were being ignored and marginalized.
