: yes you are right. but when i say that the Cath bruig
: owned the province i ment that this was many years
: beforer the 20 years war.
: but one of the theoris i have developed is that.
: that there where a great war between Cath bruig and the
: province many year ago. before Moagim and his
: Myrkridia allies.the war ended when the city states of
: the north defeated the Cath bruig empire and conquered
: the south. and after that the province was one country
: with a king. but a self gouverning gouvernment i each
: city. something like EU.
: then when Moagim arrived after many years of peace ( age
: of reason)the Cath bruig empire and the province
: teamed up to fight the myrkridia. but the myrkridia
: was not deafeted until Connacht arrived over 100 years
: later.
: He may wanted a base of operation in the west so the
: western king gave him covenant. or maybe sold covenant
: to him. remeber that the west neded money to win the
: war against the myrkridia. after Moagim was deafeted
: Connacht keept Covenant.
: the west wanted it bakk very badly ( it was there old
: capitol) then after Connachts disapering the west
: gained influence over Covenant. and it ended with to
: wanna bie princes. one that supported the west and one
: who supported the east. The western side one. and
: Covenant where again capitol of the province.

Major flaw to your theory: the Myrkridia most likely came from the West. The tomb of their first king was in Silvermines (perhaps that bat cave), according to the betas. And it makes sense; Alric came from the west. Connacht and Balor came from the east. Moagim/Tireces & the Krids came from the west. The Leveller/Hero before him probably came from the east. We know the hero of the Second Era rose in the east, and we are in the Seventh now. Trace the pattern backward: 7th-west, 6th-east, 5th-west, 4th-east, 3rd-west, 2nd-east, 1st-west. So the Krids came from the west. Thus, Connacht wouldn't want a base of operations in the west, because the west was a blackened wasteland by that time.

Secondly, the man called "Connacht" was long gone by the 20 years war; "Balor" was around subborning Myrmidons 150 years before that (see TFL manual).

And I'm sure I could shoot many more holes in your theory, if I could just make any sense out of it.

(Sorry to everyone if I seem testy, I'm in a bit of a bad mood).
