The Irish Land War (1879-1882) was a significant agrarian movement in Ireland aimed at addressing the issues of land ownership and tenant rights. Many Irish farmers, known as tenants, faced high rents and eviction threats from landlords, often leading to poverty and hardship. The movement sought to reform land laws and improve conditions for tenants. Key figures in the Land War included Michael Davitt, who founded the Land League to advocate for tenant rights, and Charles Stewart Parnell, a prominent political leader. The conflict resulted in various reforms, including the Land Act of 1881, which aimed to stabilize rents and secure tenants' rights.
