Map of Ireland 1630s Tags:ireland 9 comments We really glowed up in the last 400 years. Who made the map? I see Louth is in Ulster where it belongs. Are you sure the map is from 1630s? Louth was moved to Leinster in 1596 Edit: sorry, didn’t notice it was a cross post Because fuck going to Mayo Looks like it was drawn by someone from Donegal who had a hatred for Mayo and Galway To be fair it does make more sense for Clare to be part of Connacht, it’s the wrong side of the Shannon for Munster. Any chance of zooming in more so can read the names They weren’t arsed walking around the west coast with their trundle wheel cos the weather and roads were too bad. Just took a quick guesstimate. I love how you can hear accent in the phonetic way sligo was spelled. “Slego” Leave a ReplyYou must be logged in to post a comment.
