Fermanagh

Fermanagh was a Gaelic kingdom among the lakes of the upper Erne, ruled by the Maguires from Lisnaskea. In 1337 Roderick Maguire held a kingdom free of English sheriffs.

Roderick died in 1338; the Maguires remained in power. During the Nine Years War Hugh Maguire led Fermanagh against English rule. His successor left Ireland in the Flight of the Earls in 1607, and the kingdom was absorbed into the Kingdom of Ireland as County Fermanagh.
