The Irish position was now a defensive one, holding a large enclave in western Ireland, including all of the province of Connacht bounded by the Shannon river. The Irish Jacobites were encouraged by their successful defence of Limerick and still hoped they could win the war with help from France. William left Ireland in late 1690, entrusting command of the Williamite forces there to the Dutch general Godert ...

| | | | | Ireland 1691-1801: Encyclopedia II - Irish Rebellion of 1798 - Legacy of 1798 The aftermath of the rebellion in counties most affected became known as the "Great Silence" due to the reluctance to speak of the rising both to forget horrific experiences of the fighting and fear of the ensuing repression. As a result the immediate version of the rebellion put out by the victors was of a fanatical rebel mob capable of extreme savagery led on and encouraged by priests to drive all heretics from Ireland and this crude version of events is still, to ...

The northern province of Ulster, which had the heaviest concentration of English and Scottish settlers, was the only part of Ireland where Talbot encountered significant resistance.
By November 1688, only the walled city of Londonderry had a Protestant garrison. An army of around 1,200 men, mostly "Redshanks" (Highlanders), under Alexander Macdonnel ...

These saw the first thorough English conquest of the whole island under the Tudor dynasty. While the Old English community of Dublin and the Pale were happy with the conquest and disarmament of the native Irish, they were deeply alienated by the Protestant reformation that had taken place in England, being all almost all Roman Catholics. In addition, they were angered by being forced to pay for the English garrisons of the country through ...

Irish nationalism - Roots.
Ireland has been subject to varying degrees of rule from England since the late 12th century. (See Norman Ireland). The Gaelic Irish resisted this conquest through military and other means, but were organised in small independent lordships and did not have a common political goal such as an independent Irish state. Conflict over the English presence was exacerbated by the Protestant Reformation in England, which introduced a religious element to the Tudor re-conquest of Ireland. Another central feature of future Anglo-Irish conflict was the continuing dispossession of Irish Catho ...

Part of the deal for the union was that Catholic Emancipation wo ...

The wars, which pitted Irish Catholics against British forces and Protestant settlers, ended in the almost complete dispossesion of the Catholic landed elite.

| | | | | Ireland 1691-1801: Encyclopedia II - History of Dublin - Independence Dublin had suffered severely in the period 1916-1922. It was the scene of a week's heavy street fighting in 1916 and again on the outbreak of the civil war in 1922.
Many of Dublin's finest buildings were destroyed at this time; the historic General Post Office (GPO) was a bombed out shell after the 1916 Rising; James Gandon's Custom House was burned by the IRA in the War of Independence, while one of Gandon's surviving masterpieces, the Four Courts had been seized by republicans and bombarded by the pro-treaty army.

| | | | | Ireland 1691-1801: Encyclopedia II - History of Ireland - Early history: 8000 BC–AD 400 What little is known of pre-Christian Ireland comes from a few references in Roman writings, Irish poetry and myth, and archaeology. The earliest inhabitants of Ireland, people of a mid-Stone Age, or Mesolithic, culture, arrived sometime after 8000 BC, when the climate had become more hospitable following the retreat of the polar icecaps. About three or four millennia later, agriculture was introduced from the continent, leading to the establishment of a high Neolithic culture, characterized by the appearance of huge stone monuments, many of ...

| | | | | Ireland 1691-1801: Encyclopedia II - Early Modern Ireland 1536-1691 - The Religious Question and Colonisation However, the English were not successful in converting either the native Irish elite or the people to the Protestant religion, and almost all remained true to their traditional devotions. It is an enduring question, why the Protestant reformation failed to take hold amongst the Irish: is it a reflection upon the people or upon the reformation? One answer (amongst many) lies in the fact that brutal methods were used by crown authority to pacify the country and exploit its resources, which heightened resentment of English rule. An additional r ...

Often the term republican is applied to those who advocate the complete independence of Ireland from Great Britain and are prepared to use force to achieve it.

| | | | | Ireland 1691-1801: Encyclopedia II - History of Dublin - Medieval Dublin After the Hiberno-Norman taking of Dublin in 1171, many of the city’s Norse inhabitants left the old city, which was on the south side of the river Liffey and built their own settlement on the north side, known as Ostmantown or "Oxmantown". Dublin became the capital of the English Lordship of Ireland from 1171 onwards and was peopled extensively with settlers from England and Wales. The rural area around the city, as far north as Drogheda, also saw extensive English settlement. In the 14th century, this area was fortified against the incre ...

| | | | | Ireland 1691-1801: Encyclopedia II - History of Ireland - Early Christian Ireland 400–800 The middle centuries of the first millennium AD marked great changes in Ireland.
Niall Noigiallach (died c.450/455) laid the basis for the Uí Néill dynasty's hegemony over much of western, northern and central Ireland. Politically, the former emphasis on tribal affiliation had been replaced by the 700's by that of patrilinial and dynastic background. Many formerly powerful kingdoms and peoples disappeared. Irish pirates struck all over the coast of western Britain in the same way that the Vikings would later attack Ireland. Some of ...

History of Ireland - The Coming of the Normans 1167–1185.
By the 12th century, Ireland was divided politically into a shifting hierarchy of petty kingdoms and over-kingdoms. Power was concentrated into the hands of a few regional dynasties contending against each other for control of the whole island. One of their number, the King of Leinster Diarmait Mac Murchada (anglicised as Diarmuid MacMorrough) was forcibly exiled from his kingdom by the new High King, Ruai ...

The first recorded Viking raid in Irish history occurred in 795 when Vikings from Norway looted the island of Lambay, located off the Dublin coast. Early Viking raids were generally small in scale and quick. These early raids interrupted the golden age of Christian Irish culture starting the beginning of two hundred years of intermittent warfare, with waves of Viking raiders plundering monasteries and towns throughout Irelan ...

The Reformation, before which, in 1536, Henry VIII broke with Papal authority, fundamentally changed Ireland. While Henry VIII broke English Catholicism from Rome, his son Edward VI of England moved further, breaking with Papal doctrine completely. While the English, the Welsh and, later, the Scots accepted Protestantism, the Irish remained Catholic. This fact determined their relationship with the British state for the next four hundred years, as the Reformation coincided with a dete ...
