    Northern Ireland had the whole revolution done for them and decided not to self determine because it might entail civil rights reforms.

    Imagine the level of brainworms

      I believe Ulster used to be the most radically opposed to Britain province so Brits just completely colonized it and basically had catholics resistants massacred and replaced with protestants, hence why the North ended up voting to remain

          [King James and his pals] saw the plantation as a means of controlling, anglicising[5] and "civilising" Ulster.[6] The province was almost wholly Gaelic, Catholic and rural, and had been the region most resistant to English control.

          Yup.
