Up to about 1170 Ireland was a largely disunified arrangement of kingdoms although there were High Kings, the island was never really a united entity - petty kings ruled various areas (They would nowadays be called 'war-lords'.)
Into this came the English at the invitation of one of the powerful who wished for assistance in regaining his kingdom.... and they stayed for a bit longer than they were welcome.
"The English" later became "The British" as England merged with Scotland.
They ruled Irish before, during and after the great famine of the 1840s.
That would be Ireland.
