Queen Medb is among one of the most striking figures in Irish legend for her ruthlessness, self-reliance, and also the many battles waged for her.

Her very first marital relationship, to King Conchobar of Ulster, ended with both entering into a life-long fight.

He, too, lost in solitary fight and also Medb wed for a 4th time. Medb's militaries pulled back when Fergus stood down, and also the queen shed the Cattle Raid of Cooley.

Incredible all kinds of good facts.
