Plantations of Ireland (1 gen 1550 anni – 1 gen 1620 anni)

Descrizione:

Plantations in the 16th and 17th centuries Kingdom of Ireland required the English Crown confiscating Irish-owned land and colonizing it with people from Great Britain. The Crown regarded the plantations as a way to control, anglicize, and "civilize" areas of Ireland. The primary plantations took place between the 1550s and the 1620s, with Ulster being the largest. The plantations resulted in the establishment of several towns, demographic and economic changes, changes in land ownership and scenery, as well as ethnic and sectarian warfare.
