They invaded Ireland, suppressed the people, brought people in from Britain and took the land from the Irish people and gave it to them etc. It would be wrong to say that there is continuing unrest in Ireland. This is a common misconception. There are very few problems now and Ireland an Britain have good relations.

In 1642 - why were Catholic and protestants fighting in Ireland?

The causes for the unrest in Ireland, before and after 1642 were many and varied. In summary, the conflict stemmed from religious and ethnic differences and the Irish Catholics fear of an invasion by anti-Catholic forces of the English Long Parliament, in league with the Scottish Covenanters (settlers in Ireland). Additionally, the rebels suspected an alliance with Charles I, Scotland, and protestant Ireland.This mistrust, along with a series of incidents, aggravated the situation leading up to, and ultimately resulting in, the Irish Rebellion in 1641. Like all rebellions, it had been smoldering for a long time prior to open conflict. Then, what began as a coup attempt, descended into the chaos of civil war.Related Information:The Catholic Confederation was founded in 1642, ending much of the chaos, but largely failing to address the problems that caused the unrest and dissatisfaction in the first place. The Confederation served as de facto government for most of Ireland, operating for some time without control from England.The war continued in Ireland until 1649 when, in the name of the British Parliament, Oliver Cromwell invaded Ireland, subjecting it in 1653. With Cromwell's conquest, nearly all Catholic-owned land was confiscated and Catholic influence in Ireland was marginalized.The story of this conflict and its consequences is long and convoluted, and in fact, even to this day the ramifications of this unrest are still running their course.
