Principality of Wales
The Principality of Wales was the realm of the native princes of Gwynedd, who from the early 13th century claimed overlordship over the other Welsh rulers. Llywelyn the Great and Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, recognised as Prince of Wales by the Treaty of Montgomery in 1267, united most of native Wales. After Edward I's conquest of 1282–1283 it became a crown territory, later held by the English heir.
