Could anyone please post their accounts for The Ulster Plantation- the effects on culture and customs, political control, and religion
My revision book(shortcuts to success) isnt very detailed on this
(i) The Ulster plantation brought about major changes in religion. The Gaelic Irish people were all Catholic and the thousands of new settlers who arrived were mostly Protestant. The majority of new settlers came from Scotland and they were Presbyterian, while the settlers from England were members of the Anglican Church. When the settlers arrived in Ulster they built Protestant churches in all the new towns and villages that they had created. Most of the land in Ulster came under the control of the new Protestant settlers and this led to the start of religious division and tension. Violence broke out many times between Catholics and Protestants. The Penal laws were later introduced, which discriminated against Catholics and this led to further problems.
(ii) Political control changed as a result of the Ulster Plantation. The old Gaelic Irish families lost control and political control fell into the hands of the new settlers from England and Scotland. The English monarchs looked upon the new settlers in Ulster as being more politically dependable because they were looked upon as being loyal to the crown. As a result, huge political divisions began between the Gaelic Irish and the new Planters who had all the power and control. Catholics were looked upon as being disloyal and were denied any political or economic control. The political divisions which began in 1609 have lasted for centuries with the division of people into Unionists and Nationalists.
(iii) The Ulster plantation brought about changes in language and customs. The Gaelic Irish had their own language and their own distinctive games, music and dances. The Gaelic Irish also had their very own unique system of law called the Brehon Laws. The new settlers who came to Ulster brought with them the English language as well as their own music and pastimes. They also introduced the English law system and new courthouses were built all over Ulster in the new towns. The settlers also brought with them a new type of house building as well as new farming methods, which were all very different from those of the Gaelic Irish.
Also, remember that you only have to learn off 2 of these 3 because they would never ask you to write on 3 of them. Also this Q came up in 2001 and the accounts were the exact same0 -
