I would assume its because Wales and Scottland fell in line pretty quickly whereas Ireland never wanted to be part of Britain and told England to fuck off.

    According to the guy above there was intermarriage between Scottish and English royals, allowing the scots to get a foothold in the new unified government. Wasn't that way with ireland, strict conquering and genocide.
