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.

    So when I was reading this I was reading mostly 19th century and early 20 century accounts. By which time, Wales as you said, had been pretty much assimilated into the empire (even if it was against their will) and were even shitting on the Irish themselves,. Wasn't trying to downplay any suffering Wales had been through, I agree if we stretch the time period back through the medieval period, it gets pretty ugly for Wales as well.

    Thanks for the post though its pretty informative.
