The War in Ireland (1688–1691), also known as the Williamite War, was a pivotal conflict that shaped Ireland’s political, religious, and cultural landscape for centuries. It marked the violent climax of competing dynastic claims and sectarian divisions. The war was fought between Jacobites, supporters of the deposed Catholic King James II, and Williamites, loyal to the Protestant William of Orange, who had taken the English throne in the Glorious Revolution of 1688.

The war ended with the Treaty of Limerick (1691), which promised leniency to Catholics but was soon undermined by the Penal Laws.
