Why was Ireland Colonized by the English?
Ulster was a rural farming region with a small population and a significant focus on cattle and crop farming. When the English conquest of Ireland began under the watchful eye of Henry VIII in the mid-16th century, Ulster was initially left mostly unbothered. It wasn’t until the reign of Queen Elizabeth I that a plantation project was privately funded in the eastern portion of the province.
