Galway is a city in the West of Ireland, in the province of Connacht.

Dún Gaillimhe (“Fort at the Mouth (bottom) of the Gaillimh”) was constructed by the King of Connacht, Tairrdelbach Ua Conchobair. A settlement grew around it. During the Norman invasion of Connacht in the, Dún Gaillimhe was captured by Richard Mor de Burgh, who had led the invasion. As the de Burghs eventually became Gaelicised, the merchants of the town, the Tribes of Galway, pushed for greater control over the walled city.

Currently Galway is ruled by an oligarchy of fourteen merchant families (twelve who claimed to be of Norman origin and two of Irish origin). These were the “Tribes of Galway”. The city thrived on international trade, it was the principal Irish port for trade with Spain and France.
