Partly because they preferred to be Irish and partly because of religious differences.

Ireland was mainly Catholic and England was protestant.

Before Irish independence there were several laws descriminating against Catholicism and against Irish nationals in favour of the occupying English.

Now Ireland (Eire) is a Catholic nation and Northern Ireland is largely protestant. Continuing troubles in the North still arise from religious differences.

Many Irish have felt oppressed by the eight hundered years of British occupation, and even today some loathe the fact that Northern Ireland is under Great Britians domain. Also the fact that the two had previously been at war with each other on multiple occassions had something to do with it. Another way is the preception of the Irish in Great Britain. Many saw the Irish as a source of cheap labor and working class british therefore felt that Irish immigrants to Britain were a threat.

What is the origins of Northern Ireland in the 17th century?

Northern Ireland only came into existence in 1922. A major factor in its origins that could be traced back to the 17th century was the Plantation of Ulster. This is when many people from Britain were given land in the north of Ireland, and they settled there. This established a strong Protestant population and a loyalty to Britain, which are part of what led to trouble and the creation of Northern Ireland and trouble since then.
