| | | | Irish Rebellion of 1798 - Society of United Irishmen: Encyclopedia II - Irish Rebellion of 1798 - Background Since 1691 and the end of the Williamite war, Ireland had been controlled by a Protestant Ascendancy on behalf of the British Crown, governing the majority Catholic population via a form of institutionalised sectarianism known as the Penal Laws. As the century progressed, progressive elements among the ruling class were inspired by the example of the American Revolution and sought to form common cause with the Catholic populac ...

| | | | Irish Rebellion of 1798 - Society of United Irishmen: 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 ...

| | | | Irish Rebellion of 1798 - Society of United Irishmen: Encyclopedia II - Irish Rebellion of 1798 - Plan The initial plan was to take Dublin, with the counties bordering Dublin to then rise to prevent the arrival of reinforcements with the remainder of the country to then rise and tie down other garrisons. The agreed signal for the rest of the country to rise was to be the interception of the outward bound mail coaches from Dublin.

| | | | Irish Rebellion of 1798 - Society of United Irishmen: Encyclopedia II - Irish Rebellion of 1798 - Outbreak of the Rebellion The nucleus of the rebellion had imploded but the counties surrounding Dublin rose as planned and the long threatened rising finally began. Surrounding districts of Dublin were first to rise and rebels quickly began to assemble in Wicklow, Meath and Kildare. The first clashes of the rebellion took place just after dawn on May 24th, and widespread fighting quickly spread throughout Leinster with the county of Kildare bearing the brunt of the initial fighting.
Despite the Government successfully beating off almost every rebel attack, al ...

| | | | Irish Rebellion of 1798 - Society of United Irishmen: Encyclopedia II - Irish Rebellion of 1798 - Aftermath Pockets of rebel resistance remained in Wexford with the last rebel group under James Corocoran, veterans of the battle of New Ross, not being defeated until February 1804. Wicklow experienced a form of fugitive warfare in the years after 1798 but the failure of Robert Emmet's rebellion in 1803 finally convinced the last organised rebel forces under Michael Dwyer to a negotiated surrender a few months later.
The 1798 rebellion was probably the most concentrated outbreak of violence in Irish history and resulted in the deaths of c. 30, ...

However, sectarianism was quickly recognised as a usefully divisive tool against the United Irishmen in the classic "divide and rule" method of colonial governance and officially encouraged by the Government. For example ...

| | | | Irish Rebellion of 1798 - Society of United Irishmen: Encyclopedia II - Irish Rebellion of 1798 - Atrocities The prelude to the rebellion was characterised by the vicious brutality of Crown forces towards rebels, real or imagined, but large scale massacres quickly accompanied the outbreak of the rebellion. Almost every British victory in the rising was marked by the massacre of captured and wounded rebels, and they were responsible for particularly gruesome massacres at Gibbet Rath, New Ross and Enniscorthy, burning rebels alive in the latter two. In addition, countless civilians were murdered by the rampaging military who also practiced gang rape ...

"General" Joseph Holt led up to 1,000 men in the Wicklow Hills forcing the British to commit substantial forces to the area until his capitulation in October.
In the north-east, Presbyterian rebels under Henry Joy McCracken briefly occupied Antrim town on 7 June before being defeated on 13 June. In Down, after initial success at Saintfield, the rebels led by Henry Munro were ...

| | | | Irish Rebellion of 1798 - Society of United Irishmen: Encyclopedia II - Irish Rebellion of 1798 - French Landing On 22 August, nearly two months after the main uprisings had been defeated, about 1,000 French soldiers under General Humbert landed in the north-west of the country, at Killala in County Mayo. Joined by up to 5,000 local rebels, they inflicted a humiliating defeat (known as the Castlebar races to commemorate the speed of the English retreat) on the British at Castlebar and set up a short-lived "Republic of Connaught", before final defeat at the Battle of Ballinamuck, in County Longford, on 8 September 1798. The French troops who surrendered were repatriated to France in exchange for British prisoners of war; ...
