''Báetán sought to impose his authority over [[Dál Riada]] in Scotland, and over the [[Oileán Mhanainn]]. Medieval [[Ulster]] genealogists describe him as ''[[ríthe Éireann|rí]] Érenn ocus Alban'', and quote from a poem, now lost, which has him receiving tribute from [[Mumhain]], [[Connacht]], [[an tEilean Sgitheanach]] and Oileán Mhanainn. This is probably to overstate his power, and represents what it meant to be high-king in much later times, rather than in Báetán's day.<ref>Byrne, ll. 109&ndash;110.</ref>
 
''Báetán is said to have forced the king of [[Dál Riada]] to pay homage to him at Rinn Seimne on [[Oileán Mhic Aodha]] near [[Latharna]], modern [[Contae Aontroma]], possibly in 574 or early 575. [[Áedán mac Gabráin]] is thought to be the king in question, and Ulster sources say that Báetán collected tribute from Scotland.<ref>Byrne, lch. 110</ref><ref>Ó Cróinín (EMI) lch. 50</ref><ref>Mac Niocaill, lch. 77</ref><ref>Ó Cróinín (NHI), lch. 216</ref>

''Báetán was unable to achieve his ends, but he was not be the last king of the Ulaid to seek conquests and allies overseas. [[FiachnaeFíachnae mac Báetáin]] of the [[Dál nAraidi]] would follow the same path in the 620s and [[Congal Cáech]] in the 630s.
 
''Báetán was married to a woman of the [[Uí Thoitre]] (a tribe of the [[Oirialla]] west of Lough Neagh in modern Contae Thír Eoghain) with whom he may have had an alliance.<ref>Ó Cróinín (NHI), lch. 216</ref> Báetán's descendants did not hold the kingship which became the monopoly of his brother's descendants, the Clan Deamáin.
