| In the early centuries AD Munster was the domain of the Iverni, and the legendary Clanna Dedad led by Cú Roí. During the Early Middle Ages most of the area was part of the Kingdom of Munster, ruled by the famous Eóganachta, who succeeded the Dáirine and Corcu Loígde overlords from the 7th century onwards, beginning with the notable career of Faílbe Flann mac Áedo Duib. Notable regional kingdoms were Iarmuman (West Munster), Osraige (Ossory), Uí Liatháin, Uí Fidgenti, Éile, Corcu Duibne, and Déisi Muman. By the 9th century the Gaels had been joined by Norse Vikings who founded towns such as Cork, Waterford and Limerick. Around this period Ossory broke away from Munster. The following century saw the rise of the Dál gCais (Dalcassians) who annexed Thomond, north of the Shannon to Munster. Their leaders were the O'Briens and spawned Brian Bóruma, perhaps the most noted High King of Ireland. By 1118 Munster had fractured into the Kingdom of Thomond, Kingdom of Desmond and the short-lived Kingdom of Ormond. |
