Well, in the spirit of historical comparison, Cromwell is to Irish Catholics what William Tecumseh Sherman is to southerners.

That is kind of harsh. Sherman just destroyed property. He didnt try to erase the southern population, just its production.
Cromwell has been compared to Pol Pot. Which, from what I read, is closer to the truth.

Worse. It might be similar if Sherman took ownership the land for good.
