Ireland sought independence from Britain due to a combination of political, economic, and cultural factors. The Irish population faced political disenfranchisement, with the British government imposing laws that often disregarded Irish interests. Additionally, economic exploitation and the impact of events like the Great Famine fueled resentment towards British rule. The desire for cultural identity and self-determination further motivated the push for independence, culminating in significant movements and uprisings throughout the early 20th century.
