    Extractions: There had been no England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales until fairly recent history and in the 6th century B.C. there were just two islands known as Ierne (Ireland) and Albion (England, Scotland and Wales). The total population at that time was somewhere between 4 and 5 million, concentrated mainly in the south-east of modern day England. This population was made up of tribes, each with its own king, king's followers, surfs and slaves, these tribes constantly squabbling amongst themselves over lands and "captives", especially women. They still managed however to trade with each other. About 325 B.C. a Greek geographer described the islands as Pretanic, a genuine Celtic word used to describe a form of speech, later to become Brittonic or the language of Britton (Britain). In Latin the islands became known as Brittania. The Celts of Ireland spoke Goidelic and of Wales it became Brythonic, from which modern Welsh is descended, including some Latin and the P-Celtic of French. The formation of modern Welsh was completed by about 700. The Romans invaded about 50B.C. and progressed until about 10 B.C. when they had some influence on "Wales" in the north and south but not in the middle hill country. The Romans power lasted until about 200A.D. before they withdrew from Wales and started slowly leaving these islands over a period of many years.

    Extractions: Part 10: The Viking Age II With the events described last began a period of relative peace between the English and the Welsh. Alfred (d. 903) was succeeded by his son, Edward, known as 'the Elder', who was a very powerful king and who managed to continue pushing back the Danes who had settled the Danelaw in England. In Wales, Rhodri's grandson through Cadell, Hywel Dda (Hywel the Good) was able to once again unite Wales in the same manner as his gradsire. By 918, Hywel had gained possession of Dyfed all of Seisyllwg, forming the kingdom of Deheubarth. It is also significnt that by this time , Hywel had already submitted to Edward the Elder, recognizing the Wessex king as his overlord. At this time, Hywel probably gained his nomen 'Dda' by journeying to Rome in 926something unique in Welsh history, as only rulers who had been exiled or were near death had ever travelled to Rome. Edward the Elder died in 924, succeeded by another powerful king, Athelstan. Athelstan continued his predecessor's efforts against the Danes, defeating the Scandinavians in battle. At about this time, Athelstan called the rulers of Wales together and gained their submission. Hywel Dda may have attended this gathering (but it looks like he was still on his way back from Romeit's a very hazy time-period). Be that as it may, from 928-949, Hywel's name appears on every charter which has Welsh signatories. This is a clear indication that Hywel not only was in good stead with Athelstan, but appeared at his court on a number of occassions. Idwal Foeb ap Anarawd, another grandson of Rhodri was ruling Gwynedd at the time, and it appears that between the two of them, they were ruling all of Wales under the overlordship of Athelstan.

    http://www.cariadsrealm.net/blog/archives/000360.html
    
    Extractions: Main The Red Dragon (Y Ddraig Goch) The red dragon has long been associated with the country of Wales. It is the mark of bravery and victory, and has been a symbol for the Welsh people since the Middle Ages. The dragon graces shields and standards and is part of many families crest or coat of arms. When King Henry VII was crowed as the King of England in 1485, it is said that he ordered the Red Dragon become part of the official flag of the principality of Wales. And the Welsh are fiercely proud of their Dragon. ‘Y Ddraig Goch a ddyry Gychwyn’ – the Red Dragon will show the way. However, some Englishman, who obviously has to much time on his hands, has deemed "The Dragon" to aggressive a symbol to display on a flag ~rolling eyes~ and there was talk of forcing us to change to a more serene symbol. Other Welsh symbols, and our Patron Saint - Dewi Sant St David (Dewi Sant) is the Patron saint of Wales and her people. He died on March I. This is St. David’s day in Wales and is celebrated every year. It is celebrated every year as the national day of thanksgiving, and is traditionally signified by women wearing a daffodil and the men wearing a leek, both which are Welsh National symbols.
