The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Ireland had been partially conquered by England in the late twelfth and thirteenth centuries, yet had never been fully brought under English rule.
- The Tudor conquest of the sixteenth century largely reduced the Gaelic lords of Leinster, Munster, Connacht and Ulster to English rule, while colonial projects like the Munster Plantation and Ulster Plantation of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries transformed landholding in the country.
- In the process the Irish were subordinated to the rule of London-based governments and a British Protestant minority became the dominant political and economic class ruling over an Irish Roman Catholic majority.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The History of Ireland article was read about 3,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 68 and blocks with 46: each hit it takes is cut by 18 %.
