Dunchadh ua Daimhine, 23rd King of Uí Maine, died 780. ==Reign== During his era, Dunchadh's kingdom endured border conflicts initiated by the Connachta, by the successive kings Donn Cothaid mac Cathail (died 773), Flaithrí mac Domnaill (died 777) and Artgal mac Cathail(died 791). The first notable incident was the battle of Achadh Liag (in Cluain Acha Liag, now called 'Killeroran' - the Uí Maine inauguration site) in 770:
This was part of a wider conflict which would see the Uí Briúin Ai of the Connachta become the dominant power in the province, which would henceforth bear their name, Connacht. Ui Maine would, by the end of the following century, remain mainly independent but it marked the beginning of several centuries of being accorded the status of second or third-class state, under overlords such as the Kings of Connacht, the Earl of Ulster, the Clanricarde and finally the Earl of Clanricarde. It was also in these years that Thomond west of the River Shannon would become annexed to Munster by the ancestors of the Dál gCais. It remains part of that province to this day. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dunchadh ua Daimhine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
