"The Plantation of Ulster was the organised colonisation of Ulster—a province of Ireland—by people from Great Britain. The rich, fertile land was taken off the Irish clan lords and was given to the British colonialists. The Irish living on the land were told to bog off."
Simplez.

Fun Fact #2
The British failed to defeat the IRA, and were forced to negotiate.
Twice.
(Two can play the "fuck you" via history game)
Yes, I remember that time when the IRA got a united Ireland through terrorism.
😁^
aye thats true what BB said,
in 2007, a MI5 Doc said they British Army did not defeat the IRA,
"Yes, I remember that time when the IRA got a united Ireland through terrorism."
I remember that time when the British attempted to rule NI without their cops and soldiers getting shot.
Seriously, if you post up RL history bits, expect us to throw it back in your face.
Wow johnsmith, that is impressive. Because defeating a load of cowards masquerading as civilians is normally pretty easy. Maybe the army should have just killed indiscriminately like ira?
The aim of the IRA was to drive Britain out of Northern Ireland, it failed 🙂 And don't tell me you support the murder of innocent civilians?
Yes, except you do realise the Good Friday Agreement, i.e. the peace settlement with the IRA, effectively means that we Irish just have to wait and breed the Orangemen out...
Sounds like a victory to me.
I don't support terrorism, but I expect it to occur when large countries ignore or actively work against populations within their borders.
Bloody Sunday British shot dead innocent civilians. IRA killed less innocent people. Brits Out.

IRISH = FAIL *Scratches ass*
as u said , The aim of the IRA "was" , now there isnt any IRA left!!
Yeah you beat our asses, give back the part of our country that you own!
Oh. Wait.
There are two IRAs left, but they're sorta pointless.
I like the bacon-flavoured IRA.
It's tangier.
And we can chew on it longer, before we have to dispose of it.
You know, IndieKid, your a bit of a prick 🙂 Drop the history lesson, just get ready for a fight.
Ohhhh look! it is a silly little git that has come out to play...
fun facts from the urban dictionary
limey bastard
A stuck up resident of the sewer known as England who lack any sense of humor and take themselves as seriously as the French when an American decides to make fun of them. usually caused by their lack of sunlight and tasteless, nauseating diet.
So... we are bad because we don't take ourselves seriously ? o-shi
Read it again, Read it right 🙂
What no IRA ? Earlier this week MI5 stated IRA was huge threat now !!
It's funny how English people think they know Irish history...
indiekid.... maybe you remember when the IRA brought the British Empire to the negotiating table.
Britain of today is like a wheesing, shriveled up, old wh0re turning tricks to buy crack compared to the stunning Blonde Celebrity Actress who commands respect that the Empire once was.
Must be tough when I country goes into it's midlife crisis.... trying to remember the time when it was young and virile... reminiscing on the good times when the international community found Britains views relevant.
It's funny when Ireland thinks it matters.
The British Loyalists killed far more civilians than the IRA ever did. If it's a numbers game (which it probably isn't) the IRA wins.
Britain controlled Ireland for hundreds of years, and still controls the North of the island. Ireland speaks English, and is part of the British Isles. I'm half Irish and half English, and I see no argument in favour of Ireland 'winning' historically or presently.
The British army should of went in and killed anyone that spoke against it, that would of "won" us the war. Yeah, the IRA probably did with the conflict in NI due to our lack of sense in the entire matter.
"The aim of the IRA was to drive Britain out of Northern Ireland, it failed And don't tell me you support the murder of innocent civilians? "
Yeah they failed, but they're still lurking about. Read somewhere they're targeting casino bankers now - Continuity IRA that was I think. The IRA had its origins in the early 1900's. It Michael Collins and the IRB vs. IRA/ Black& Tans....I don't care just sayin'
@Blandman
You have victim complex too blandman. Don't deny it. You got booted out of all your colonies like shaking off a bad case of chlamydia. You got pissed back into your island, though u still have your Nigerian scammers circulating around etc..
The international banksters run it all now. Congrats for that btw. Great job!!
& I assure you THEY don't care about any of us minions. They think the whole earth belongs to them, including the UK.
Ireland>England. Nuff said.
The British Army killed more civilians than the IRA ever did you stupid twats.
On the topic of unlawful occupation and military conquest, how's the war in Afghanistan going?
