Name of the territory in Ireland where the English settlers lived, and the only place where the English held any real sway during the period from the conquest to about the time of Elizabeth. In the latter half of the 14th and in the 15th and 16th centuries, it was confined to a narrow strip of territory, a few miles in width, around the city of Dublin.
