The Irish Rebellion of 1565, also known as the Desmond Rebellions, was primarily supported by the Gaelic lords of Munster, particularly the earls of Desmond. The rebellion was fueled by resentment against English rule and land confiscations. Additionally, local Irish clans and factions opposed to English authority joined the uprising, seeking to resist the encroachment on their traditional rights and territories.
