| Title | Provincial Boundaries of Ireland
|
| Notes | Ireland has historically been divided into four provinces: Connacht, Leinster, Munster and Ulster. The provinces of Ireland serve no administrative or political purposes, but function as historical and cultural entities. The origins of these provinces (loosely federated kingdoms with somewhat flexible boundaries), of which there were five before the Norman invasion, can be traced to the over-riding influence exerted in their respective territories by the great Irish dynastic families of Ui Neill/O'Neill (Ulster), Ui Maeilsheachlainn/O Melaghlin (Mide), Ui Briain/O Brien (Munster), Ui Conchobhair/O Conor (Connacht) and Mac Murchadha Caomhanach/MacMurrough Kavanagh (Leinster).
