Detailed Solution

After a failed revolt led by Wolfe Tone and his United Irishman, Ireland was forcibly incorporated into the United Kingdom in 1801.
Ireland was a profoundly divided country between Catholics and Protestants. The English aided the Protestants of Ireland in establishing their supremacy over a primarily Catholic land. Catholic uprisings against British control were crushed. Ireland was forcefully absorbed into the United Kingdom in 1801 following a failed uprising led by Wolfe Tone and his United Irishmen in 1798. Fearing that an independent Ireland might join forces with the French, the British authorities decided to combine the two kingdoms. So Ireland was forcibly incorporated into the United Kingdom.
