Independent Wales was defined in the centuries after the
Romans withdrew from Britain in AD 410. The Welsh
achieved this despite Irish and Viking raids and
colonisation, despite the growing power of the Anglo-
Saxon kingdoms, and despite frequent and often bitter
dissension between themselves. Pressure from the east
increased from the eleventh century onwards, as the
Normans carved out marcher lordships and the Plantagenets
intensified English royal overlordship, but native Welsh
sovereignty remained intact until Llywelyn ap Gruffudd
was killed by Edward I's army in 1282; and even then, the
dream of independence remained alive, inspiring an
ambitious and almost successful revolt under Owain Glyn
Dwr in the fifteenth century. The wars of Welsh
independence encompassed centuries of raids, expeditions,
battles and sieges, but they were more than a series of
military encounters: they were a political process.
