How did British policy contribute to starvation in Ireland and mass migration from Ireland?
British policy, particularly the lack of effective response to the Great Famine (1845-1852), significantly contributed to starvation in Ireland. The British government prioritized exportation of food and maintained a laissez-faire economic approach, which exacerbated food shortages. Additionally, policies such as the Corn Laws favored British agricultural interests over Irish needs, leading to widespread poverty and desperation. This dire situation prompted mass migration as many sought better opportunities abroad, particularly in the United States.
