Angered that the ruling Irish party, the Fitzgerald dynasty of Kildare, had crowned a pretender to the Irish throne and went in open rebellion against the crown, Henry VIII decided to conquer Ireland in 1536 and bring it under his control. Starting in 1541, he upgraded Ireland to a Kingdom and proclaimed himself King of Ireland at a meeting of the Irish Parliament.
English power was limited to a small area around Dublin and some coastal towns until the reign of the Tudor monarchs - Henry VII, Henry VIII, Edward VI, Mary I and Elizabeth I. By 1603 the English conquest was complete.
The first conquest came in the year 1169. There have been various milestones of Irish history since then when it can be said they conquered Ireland, too many to list. Various stages have occurred and there were also many revolutions against British rule in Ireland, so balance has shifted at those points.

The Normans invaded Ireland in 1169 and the last major war against the English ended in 1603. The conquest was a gradual process in between these two dates.
In the year 1169.
In 1951
he conquered Ulidia and Ulster, both in Ireland, UK
Because they both supported King Charles.
yes he did :)
The Normans ended up in Britain and Ireland because of William the Conquer and his expansions. Expansion continued during the First Crusades.
Ireland's real name is Éire, which is in the Irish language and which in English is Ireland.
Irish is not spoken everywhere because in the 1800 many English moved over to conquer Ireland and so the language died out in most parts. Mary Queen of Scots had a lot to do with it too OR... it could be the fact that northern Ireland is an English speaking country and you can still find people in Dublin speaking Irish and road signs in southern Ireland are mostly in English but you can find lots in Irish too!
The French invaded Ireland in 1798, but they didn't manage to conquer Ireland because the Irish defeated them.

It didn't. When the Republic of Ireland left the UK in 1921, the people of what became Northern Ireland voted to remain part of the UK.
The only way to get to Ireland from abroad in the 12th century, which is when John De Courcy came to Ireland, would be by ship. That is how he and the other Normans got to Ireland.

The precedent set by the English colonization to Ireland was that the inferior race could be brutally repressed.
The Spanish word conquistador mean conquer in English.
