Ireland has a very long history with Britain, which goes back as far as 1169. From then there have been plantations in Ireland, most notably in the north of Ireland/ There were many revolutions and rebellions. The history between Ireland and Britain is long and complex, too much to go through in an answer like this. So to take a simpler look at what led to the current situation, all of Ireland was under British rule, being part of the United Kingdom between 1801 and 1922. Then, what is now the Republic of Ireland became independent and what is now Northern Ireland stayed as part of the United Kingdom. That is the situation to this day.
