Summary

Description
English: Political map of Ireland circa 1500 showing the approximate territories of the various Gaelic and Anglo-Norman Lordships.

Key:

  • Old English (Norman) controlled areas and the Pale are in white and use a different font, whereas Gaelic controlled areas are in various colours.
  • Lighter shade of a colour around a deeper colour can represent a semi-independent kingdom under nominal vassalage of a larger kingdom who they can share kinship ties with.
