It was if and if but protestants were moving fast BUT...There were tons of catholics pouring in (like the protestants). But the protestants were ruling Ireland (mostly like Quakers etc.. etc...)
This was a phrase associated with protestants in Northern Ireland not wanting to be ruled in a united Ireland. As the Republic of Ireland is Catholic and at one time the Catholic church had a lot of influence in Ireland, the Protestants would have seen it as too much influence by the Roman Catholic Church. Because of that, they preferred to be ruled from Britain, which is Protestant.This was a phrase associated with protestants in Northern Ireland not wanting to be ruled in a united Ireland.

It's not religion, as the media says, but politics. Most Protestants consider themselves British or Loyalist (loyal to the crown), most Catholics Nationalist (want Ireland to be one nation) Many Catholics believe that Protestants opressed them and groups such as the IRA fought against the protestant government in England as they want to be ruled by Dublin in the Republic of Ireland. Protestant groups such as the UDA and UVF fought to defend the union as they are loyal to the crown. In the 1990s a peace process started and things are much improved now, with both sides working together.
Maryland was established by Catholics for Catholics.
Northern Ireland is not ruled by China.
Catholics are very mainly nationalists. Nationalists are people who want to keep Ireland as one nation, with no Northern Ireland. This is because Northern Ireland is ruled by the U.K and Nationalists want to break this link. Londonderry is the second town of Northern Ireland and the 'London' part of this name annoys Catholics because it is obviously associated with the U.K. I live in Londonderry and I am a Unionist but the majority of my Nationalist friends simply drop the bit they don't like and call our town, 'Derry'.
No, Northern Ireland is not and never has been ruled by France.
Ireland was ruled by the UK appointed Lord Lieutenant who represented Queen Victoria in Ireland. In 1845 the Lord Lieutenant was Lord Heytesbury.
Ireland is independent, so it is not ruled by any other country. Northern Ireland, which is different to Ireland and may be what you are referring to, is part of the United Kingdom.
No, it has a President. It is the Republic of Ireland.
No. Ireland has a president, but it is a largely ceremonial position.
No, first off the Thirty Year War was fought in central Europe and it started as a fight between protestants, mostly Calvinists and the Church but degraded into a war between France and the Hapsburgs who ruled the Holy Roman Empire, and both France and the Hapsburgs were Catholic. In Ireland, after the vicious suppression of Elizabeth I and there are no words to describe the horror under Cromwell, Catholics were completely disenfranchised, their property and livelihood was stolen from them by the English and they were forbidden to even speak their own language much less worship God. As horrible and dreadful as it all was, it had nothing to do with the Thirty Years War, and the Catholics were in no position to "fight" for control, they were just trying to survive.
Northern Ireland is ruled by no other country i.e it is no-longer ruled by Britain. Power has been devolved to Northern Ireland (2010) in which they have their own government, police etc.
