The Great Migration is a web series of short films about key moments in Ulster-Scots history. In this episode, the topic is the trials of James II in Ireland in his war against William of Orange. 

This programme delves into the uneasy and complex relationship between Scotland and England, tracing the roots of Presbyterian resistance and its impact on British and Irish history. Beginning with the settlement of Lowland Scots in Ulster during the early 17th century, the narrative explores their struggles under the monarchs Charles I, Charles II, and James II.
