Early History
The Cymry (Welsh) people have lived in Briton for thousands of years, before the Anglo-Saxons came into the land in the 5th century AD. The Anglo-Saxons drove the Welsh to what is now Wales, and kept up a constant oppression ever since. The Welsh people have tried to break free on several occasions but were never been able to get completely away from England.
War for Welsh Independence
The age of diplomacy brought no comfort to the Welsh, as Parliament continued to discriminate against the Welsh people. The Welsh tried to break free in 1963 when two Welsh militias, the Byddin Rhyddid Cymru (Free Wales Army) and the Mudiad Amddiffyn Cymru (Movement for the Defense of Wales), formed against the English, but both were destroyed by 1969. While disappointed with the results, the Welsh were determined to win their freedom. On 4 February, 1983 the Y Fyddin Annibyniaeth Gymreig (Army of Welsh Independence or AWI) was founded by a small council, headed by Gerallt Morgan. It took several months but the AWI was armed and mobilized using guerrilla tactics to organize a quick surrender by the British government. The War for Welsh Independence officially ended on 23 September, 1983 with the formation of a sovereign Welsh nation, recognized by the U.K.
