Why were British troops sent into Northern Ireland?

Almost 40 years ago British legions were direct into Londonderry because of galore(postnominal) conflicts callable(p) to the separations and dissimilitude of the two religions, Catholic and Protestants. British g overnment tried to put in by sending in their on soldiery as discrimination got so escaladed that Catholics would not charge trust the RUC (who were mainly Protestant.)British troops were sent into Ireland because of many conflicts that originated to Henry VIII which was almost 500 coulomb years ago. When Henry VIII wanted to divorce Catherine of Aragon, the pope of capital of Italy for prettye it, thus making England alone and to a greater extent importantly formed The church building of England. Ireland was still Catholic and in allies with capital of Italy, England saw this as a holy terror so after 1610 they, seized some of Ireland and planted some Protestants there. England legal opinion that Rome would want to try and evade England through Ireland so this is why they took over part of Ireland. The protestant living in Ireland were called under accommodaters as they had to under take all rules given by the Church of England, they had to build barns houses and be scrap ready when needed.Irish Catholics were furious about the take over of Ireland so they decided to rebel, they burnt houses and barns, crops and food they also killed thousands of protestants (2000 3000). This made England retaliate so they sent a Scottish multitude of 10,000 men into Ulster and the English multitude took hold of Cork and Dublin, the rebellion resulted in the whole of Ireland being taken over.When King Charles II died, crowd II became his successor, the problem with James II being king is that he is catholic. James promoted catholic soldiers to higher ranks and gave more benefits to Catholics, parliament became suspicious and thought he was trying to change England into a catholic state. Jamess Daughter Mary married William of Orange. Making William the new king.James II went to Ireland and he knew he would cast down strong support from Catholics. With his army behind him, he went to take over Derry, except the assimilator boys closed(a) the gate stopping his army from entering, the protestants suffered from starvation, disease and huge destruction because of this, exclusively when James II was defeated by William of orange, (battle of Boyne) protestants where seen as heroes for bit for their believes, ironically this is one of the main reasons why British troops had to be sent in again 400 hundred years later.This in many ways led to the rising of Sinn Fein who were a political group fighting for Irelands freedom, in the sense they were also corrupt and had the support of the IRA (Irish republican army.) The Sinn Fein, one of the leaders Michael Collins, who raised a lot of armies, actually subscribe the partition. Britain thought the only way to resolve Irelands conflicts would be to try and demoralize both Ulster and Ireland finish up, reluctantly accepted by both sides Ireland was once and for all separated (1920),).Possible short consideration effects of the British troops sent in would be the discrimination against Catholics, collect to the bad consanguinity because of plantation and the reformation and the battle of Derry. The first of many short term causes was the blatant vote rigging or Gerrymandering, which caused many Catholics to have bad or plane no house at all even if there were 12 in a family, but the Protestants would get them due to the discrimination. Jobs and promotion given to a catholic was very rare, a shipyard in Wolfe had over 10,000 employees but only 400 were catholic.Possible reasons which led up to the civil war could, which ultimately led to the sending in off the British troops, are the lack of housing provided by the local council, due to the gerrymandering the council was run by protestants causing Catholics to lose houses.Prejudice rose even further when RUC or B specialists (off duty police who were armed) treated Catholics the likes of scum. The RUC were renown to be mainly protestants, they harassed Catholics and destroyed their property, they even permit off crimes as long as it was a protestant thievery from a catholic.All these events led to the Civil rights movement, Civil rights activists tried to bunt to Londonderry but were stopped at Burntollet bridge, where civil rights activists were met by angry protestants. The protestants thought the civil rights were all IRA, and thought they would take matters into their own hand and heavy-handed rioting broke out. The b specialist actually helped the rioters and the RUC did little to naught to help the matter.Soon after the events that occurred at Burntollet bridge and the appalling vaunting by the RUC led to the Battle of Bogside. This battle was on the day of the apprentice boys march, (mentioned above) the protestants would march and celebrate the honorable apprentice boys. T hey would sing offensive songs such as Drive the Billy-boys back and throw missiles at the Catholics such as rocks and coins. On august 1969 the march began, even thought many bulk thought it would inevitable end up in a enough scale riot. The Catholics tried to barricade themselves in but the Protestants ran at the restriction full force to get at them, the RUC were actually trying to get the barrier down (supposedly trying to break up the riot but couldnt get to them). This appalling riot caused the sending of the troops in, Catholics thought it was a godsend as they heated the RUC so much.
