The Barony of Eplaheimr is the SCA branch covering the Midlands of Ireland (Offaly, Laois & North Tipperary). It is part of the Principality of Insulae Draconis in the Kingdom of Drachenwald.
History

Shortly after that, the Shire of Eplaheimr also formed from the Midlands (Offaly, Laois & North Tipperary).
In February of 2021, at a virtual court, Eplaheimr became a barony, with Melisende Fitzwalter and Etienne Fevre being invested as founding Baroness and Baron.
