How did edward you take control of Wales?
Edward I had major dynastic problems at home - which he inherited from his quietist father Henry III - so organised a major war of colonisation against Wales to keep his barons occupied. LLywellyn ap Gruffydd - Wales' last Prince of the Blood - was killed in a minor skirmish at Cilmeri on December 11th 1282. This left Wales with no obvious overlord, and the country became Edward's fiefdom by default. Conquering Wales wasn't a good idea. It led fairly directly to the deposition and murder of Edward's son and successor, Edward II. This in turn sparked off two centuries of civil war (including the Wars of the Roses) which only ended when a Welsh king (Henry VII) conquered England. There is a moral here somewhere ....
