The Welsh Empire (Welsh History Post Glyndwr)

The Welsh Empire (Y Ymerodraeth Cymraeg) was born during the reign of Arthur (1795-1831). Known to posterity as the "Soldier King", Arthur, like his father Rhisiart had been born to war. Fighting the English for the liberation of Wales as the War of Independance came to a close Arthur began to look for foreign adventures with which to enrich the close to bankrupt Welsh Kingdom.

The Empire would soon see its first colony (Y Wladfa - Patagonia) and eventually the Empire would encompass lands in Africa and islands scattered across the south Pacific ocean.The Empire itself would last until the early 1970's although Welsh troops would continue to be involved in peace keeping operations in the former colonies up till the present day.
