The roots of the Plantation stretch all the way back to 350BC when Gaels from the Iberian Peninsula first invaded Ireland. They waged a campaign of genocide against the native people, most of the survivors seeking refuge in Scotland. It was descendents of these refugees who (largely) made up the Plantation settlers. It is an interesting fact that Eoin McNeill, a leader of the Irish Republican movement during the early part of the 20th century, openly acknowledged this fact; indeed he went on to say that the Plantation should by right be called "The Homecoming".

This was done through a series of Plantations - Laois and Offaly were the first in 1556. However, the most successful plantation of Ireland was the 3rd Plantation - the Plantation of Ulster (1606).
