    How was Ireland incorporated in the United Kingdom?

    Answer:

    By the Act of Parliament 1707, Scotland was incorporated in the United Kingdom. Ireland, however, was still out of this union. Ireland was a country deeply divided between Catholics and Protestants.
    The English helped the Protestants of Ireland to impose their dominance over largely Catholic country.
    Catholics revolted against British dominance but were brutally suppressed. Last bid of revolt was organised by Wolfe Tone and his United Irishmen in 1798 but their efforts failed.
    Ireland was forcibly incorporated into the United Kingdom in 1801.
