Why did the English want Ireland?
Ironically, one of the main reasons was to protect its own borders. Neighbouring states pose a direct threat to ambitious rulers and kings. Within these neighbours, powerful armies can be amassed. Foreign powers can gain influence.

I studied Irish history in my third year of high school.
I know all about the siege and famine. It was a very long time ago so no point being bitter about it nowadays.
