23. THE IRISH IN ULSTER About 10% of Irish chiefs were allowed to keep their land. They were known as the ‘Trusted Irish’ because of their loyalty to the king. They had to follow English law and customs. Undertakers kept on many Irish tenants during the plantation of Ulster because they needed a workforce. They were given the worst land and had the highest rent. The kernes (soldiers) who fought for the Irish chiefs who fled in the Flight of the Earls had no work. They resented the settlers and attacked their land and animals.

24. RESULTS OF THE PLANTATIONS POLITICAL – Conflict arose between Catholics and Protestants over land and religion. Protestants controlled most of the power through the penal laws, which forbade Catholics from owning land. This contributed to the Troubles in Northern Ireland at the end of the 20 th century. RELIGIOUS – The planters were Protestants, but they were in a minority in Ireland. The majority of Protestants were in Northern Ireland, especially Antrim, Down and north Armagh. The plantations failed to crush the Catholic religion. CULTURAL – The Culture and language of Gaelic Ireland declined with English language, law and culture becoming more widespread. New farming methods and towns were introduced.
