Best Answer

Cromwell was a very important English person, a great figure in history, without a doubt. But he was not really a Briton except in the loosest sense of that word, an inhabitant of Britain. Also, the epithet Great for the head of State is reserved in English history for King Alfred. So the term might well be applied to Cromwell, but it is by no means clear that he "deserved" it.

Does Oliver Cromwell deserve the title 'Curse of Ireland'?

Ridiculous is one descriptive term. Religious intolerance does not become anyone who aspires to be remembered by History. I suppose that had Cromwell 'Revolutionised' England, as later Napoleon did in France for example, then he might be viewed differently: But he did not. Drogheda & Wexford are a stain on his character. Massacres are not Battles.

Depends on your viewpoint. If you think conquerers are great, and don't mind the slaughter of enemies and innocent people, he did great. If you think otherise, you lump him in with all the other killers and looters in human history.
