Connacht (alternative but rarely used old English spelling: "Connaught") is the north-western province of Ireland, comprising the counties of Galway, Mayo, Sligo, Leitrim and Roscommon.
Duke of Connaught was a British royal title given to a son of the British monarch. The last British prince awarded the title was Arthur, Duke of Connaught[?], (1850-1942), son of Queen Victoria. As Ireland is no longer part of the United Kingdom, it is not expected that the title will be awarded again.
