Initially invited by the Irish king Diarmait Mac Murchada to help reclaim his throne, the Normans sought to establish territories and consolidate power. Their invasion marked the beginning of a significant period of foreign intervention in Irish affairs, leading to the establishment of feudal rule and lasting cultural and political changes in Ireland.
