The British government's fear of an independent Ireland siding against them with the French resulted in the decision to unite the two countries. This was brought about by legislation in the parliaments of both kingdoms and came into effect on 1 January 1801.

On 1 January 1801, Ireland incorporated in the United Kingdom of Great Britain as the Irish Parliament was eliminated and Ireland became a part of a new United Kingdom.
Irish nationalists desired Northern Ireland to leave the UK and join a united Ireland.
The conflict began in the course of a campaign to end discernment against the nationalist minority by the Protestant government and the police force.
