How did the troubles start between British Empire and Ireland?
Bad feelings between the English and the Irish go back to the Dark Ages, Irish raiders terrorised the British West coast and took many people as slaves (that's how St Patrick came to be in Ireland). The Irish hate for the English really started when the Normans from England occupied Ireland in the 12th century under Richard de Clare (Strongbow). The Irish slowly regained their land over a few hundred years but in the 16th century, the Tudors caused a lot of trouble in Ireland by starting plantations. The land and rights were taken from the Irish and there was a lot of conflict in the 16th and 17th centuries also because of religious differences, Ireland being Catholic and England being Protestant. There was much less resistance after the Battle of the Boyne which was a decisive English victory over the Irish and Scot Jacobites. Northern Ireland became heavily populated with English people which eventually led to the recent 'Troubles' in which Irish Republicans have callled for a completely unified Ireland and no more English presence. The potato famine and the lack of English support during those times were also a cause for hate in the Irish, as English landlords would carelessly evict those Irish who were too impoverished to pay their tax/rent. Hope all that answers the question.

Did the English shoot the Irish when the Irish tried to stop food being taken to England during the great famine?
That's quite a silly question... But, to answer it, I hightly doubt it. The Irish couldn't stop food being exported to England because England had full power over the country. The Irish had no choice. At the time, it was highly unusual for any country to export all the good products first before feeding their own country, that's how bad it was. The simply ate potatoes and drnak milk, the only two things left after what was exported to England's extraordianary demand for food and raw materials. Now, I'm not sure how you got the whole 'shooting' thing, because the English wouldn't have set foot in Ireland to shoot them! They thought of the Irish as dirty and poor and wouldn't go near them, even if it killed them. Or, if not, they were pretty ignorant as to what was going on.
