Tipperary in the north of the Munster Province. Later there were also Cianachta Septs in Breagh / Brega in Co. Meath in the south - east of Northern Leinster, another at Glinne Gemhin in Co. Derry in the north - east of the Ulster Province, and in Co. Sligo in the north - west of the Connacht Province. They also had many other Septs throughout Ireland where they had become the overall rulers as the aristocratic warrior class in those areas, which was due to the Heberian Cianachta Families' ongoing commitment to their maternal kinsmen the Heremonian Ui Cobhthaigh Dal Cuinn and also to their descendants the "Northern" and "Southern" Ui Niaill Tuatha / Family regions.

226 AD. Fergus / Fearghus "Duibh Deadach," a son of Imchad became the Irian 114th King of Tara / Ireland for only one year as he was killed in the Battle of Crinna in the Midlands / Mide / in Co. Meath in the south - east of Northern Leinster by Lewy / Lughaidh "Lagha" who was also standing up for the rights of 82.Cormac mac Airt. As the Irian forces retreated back to the north across the kingdom of Breagh / Brega his two brothers were also killed, Fergus the Long Haired and Fergus the Fiery / "Caisfhiaclach” / of the Crooked Teeth. 86.Teague mac Cian and Lewy “Lagha” took 82.Cormac mac Airt's part on this occasion with 86.Teague receiving the territory instead at Magh Breagh for the Heberian Cianachta Sept as a reward from 82.Cormac mac Airt.
