Angel Hale · Answer 1

Ireland: Was predominantly Catholic; could not make its own laws.

Britain: Charged heavy taxes, controlled Irish trade.

Explanation:

According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:

Was predominantly Catholic. Could not make its own laws. Charged heavy taxes. Controlled Irish trade.

During the 18th century, Great Britain exercised enormous, tight control over the island of Ireland. During this time period, Britain charged Irish people extremely high taxes that limited them econonomically. Moreover, Irish people were not allowed to make their own laws and their trade was severely restricted. An important difference between these two countries was that Ireland was predominantly Catholic while Great Britain was predominantly Protestant.
