Uí Sihtric (999–1168)

The Uí Sihtric dynasty was a Hiberno-Norse noble family and a cadet branch of the Uí Ímair clan of the British Isles. The Uí Ímair had ruled Dublin for half a century, but came to dominate Ireland upon King Sigtrygg Silkbeard's victory over Máel Sechnaill, High King of Ireland in 999, claiming sovereignty over the island. Eventually, Sigtrygg Silkbeard was crowned King of Ireland by Pope Sylvester V.^[1] The Uí Sihtric suffered from a disputed succession after the death of King Olaf Sigtryggsson, eventually sparking a brutal war of succession known as the Hundred Kings War. The last Uí Sihtric King, Sven Olafsson was exiled to Vinland together with many of his kinsmen, which they ruled until the establishment of the Principality of Vinland.

Uí hEodhusa (1181–1259)

The Uí hEodhusa dynasty were a group of minor Hiberno-Norse nobles based in Dublin, and distant relatives of their preceding Uí Sihtrics and Uí Ímairs. The Uí Ímair came to power in the wake of the brutal Hundred Kings War, during which they took control of much of Eastern Ireland with the help of Norman and Moorish mercenaries that their founder, Osvald Linisson had recruited from abroad. The Uí hEodhusa were challenged by native Gaelic lords Domnhall Caomhánach of Leinster and Brian Conchobair of Munster for lordship of Ireland. After a brief cultural flowering in the early reign of Ivarr Magnusson, the authority of Uí hEodhusa monarchs collapsed after the Sigurd Rebellion, and the Kingship was usurped by Moorish general Eoin O Hiamad.

The death of Ivarr Magnusson allowed the Moorish general Eoin O Hiamad to become King of Ireland.

the Hundred Years' War between the House of Valois and the House of Plantagenet later the House of Lancaster over control of the French throne.^[2] The Valois claimed the right to the succession by male-only primogeniture, having the closest all-male line of descent from a recent French king. They were descended from the third son of Philip III, Charles, Count of Valois. The Plantagenets based their claim on being closer to a more recent French King, Edward III of England being a grandson of Philip IV through his mother, Isabella. The two houses fought the Hundred Years War to enforce their claims; the Valois were ultimately successful, and French historiography counts their leaders as rightful kings. One Plantagenet, Henry VI of England, did enjoy de jure control of the French throne under the terms of the Treaty of Troyes, which formed the basis for continued English claims to the throne of France until the 19th century. The Valois line would rule France until the line became extinct in 1589, in the backdrop of the French Wars of Religion. As Navarre did not have a tradition of male-only primogeniture, the Navarrese monarchy became distinct from the French, with Joan II, a daughter of Louis X, inheriting there.
