Tiobraid Árann · Munster
After the Normans came, the O'Kennedy kingdom of Ormond became a lordship, and by 1210 Tipperary was a shire. In 1328 it was granted to the Earls of Ormond as a county palatine, except for the church lands around Cashel, which made a separate county, Cross Tipperary, until the two were finally joined in 1715.
