  The eldest daughter of Llewelyn the Great and her descendants married into Scottish nobility, including the Bruce kings of Scotland, which means every British monarch from James VI and I onwards is a descendant of Llewelyn himself.

  I went through a big Welsh phase in high school but never even attempted to make sense of the small states. Thank you for this.

  The Tudor origin story made me think about JRR Tolkien and his stewards of Gondor. And because Tolkien knew a lot about British history I can&apos;t imagine this is a coincidence. Even if his stewards don&apos;t become kings by conquest but de facto kings when the royal dynasty ended.

  Jack, as a Welsh person I must commend your Welsh pronunciation. Only one error. Glyndwr is more like glin not glun. I live seven miles from Cardiff in the former Glamorgan. Welsh counties changed many years ago. I&apos;m very proud to be Welsh but guess what era in history is my favourite? Yes the Tudor era. Thanks so much for this video Both.

  Fair play to you, butt. I clicked on this video expecting to puke out of my ears from the inevitable 17 minutes of mispronunciations, but CLEARLY you did your research. Truly impressive. I’m named after Hywel Dda and you nailed it. Better pronunciation than most of my monoglot compatriots in fact. Diolch i ti! 👏🏼

  Amazing work as always, I never thought I’d see someone on YouTube who could actually pronounce “ll” correctly! <br>The early medieval period of Wales is definitely my favourite, I think the sparing information we have is what makes it so fascinating and mysterious.

  Very impressed with the Welsh pronunciations in this video. &nbsp;Most narrators from outside Wales really struggle and butcher the names! &nbsp;The only one that was significantly wrong was &quot;Morgannwg&quot;, and the only other issue was where the word emphasis was placed - in Welsh, it&apos;s almost on the penultimate syllable, so &quot;morgannwg&quot; would be pronounced &quot;mor-GAN-oog&quot;.<br><br>But other than that, top marks!
