Wild Geese were Irish who served in foreign wars in the 18th century.
AnswerMost of them were Jacobite's (those who supported the English catholic king James 1 in a war over the English throne) who were banished from Ireland after losing the war, they went on to become large contingents of all the main European (catholic) armies especially the French. Ireland has always had a large number of people in other armed forces and I think but am not sure that the term extends to them too. You will find Irish units winning independence for parts of South America, fighting for Napolean or the boers etc,
