Name a group of people who received land in Ireland during the plantation?

During the English and Scottish plantations in Ireland, Protestant settlers, particularly those from England and Scotland, received land. The most notable of these groups were the Scots who settled in the Ulster region, particularly during the early 17th century. These plantations aimed to establish a loyal Protestant population in Ireland, often displacing the native Irish Catholic landholders.


Why did the plantations in Ireland happen?

The plantations in Ireland were primarily driven by English and Scottish colonization efforts, particularly during the 17th century, aimed at establishing control over Irish lands. The most significant of these was the Ulster Plantation, initiated after the defeat of Gaelic lords, which sought to settle Protestant English and Scots in Ireland to solidify British rule and promote Protestantism. This led to significant social, cultural, and economic changes in Ireland, resulting in the displacement of many native Irish and the establishment of a Protestant landowning class. The legacy of these plantations has had lasting impacts on Irish society and politics.
