Its ruling dynasty were the Uí Maine, the descendants of Maine Mór, a semi-legendary figure. According to tradition, Maine Mór was granted the territory by Saint Grellan . Its sub-kingdoms, also known as lordships, included - among others - Tír Sogháin, Corco Mogha, Delbhna Nuadat , Síol Anmchada, and Hy Fiachrach Fionn. These kingdoms were made up of offshoots of the Uí Maine dynasty, or subject peoples of different races.

Descendant clans of the dynasty include the Ó Ceallaigh (Kelly), Ó Madadhan (Madden), O'Mudaigh (Moody), Ó Neachtáin (Naughton), Ó Domhnalláin (Donnellan), Ó Mullally (Lally) and Ó Fallamháin (Fallon) families.
