The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The main plantations took place from the 1550s to the 1620s, the biggest of which was the plantation of Ulster.
- The plantations led to the founding of many towns, massive demographic, cultural and economic changes, changes in land ownership and the landscape, and also to centuries of ethnic and sectarian conflict.
- They created large communities with British and Protestant identities, and a new Protestant elite.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Plantations of Ireland article was read about 92,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 79 and blocks with 86: each hit it takes is cut by 34 %.
