No Merthyr has never been a capital or even a city. However, it was considered the largest iron making town in the world when the Dowlais Iron Works (Owned by the Guest Family) was producing over 23% of the worlds iron requirements

It was never part of Wales. As it is very near Wales, it does have a lot of Welsh people living in it, which has resulted in it being referred to as "The capital of north Wales" in the past.

London is the capital of the United Kingdom, which includes Wales. However, the people of Wales would say that Cardiff is their capital city and the Welsh Assembly is located there.

Liverpool and pretty much most of Merseyside was originally part of Wales many centuries ago before yet again the English stole it. Even the name "Liverpool" is the English translation of the variety of Welsh names for the city the most popular name is "Lerpwl".

Liverpool's borders originally extended beyond the city right across to the wirral which is now part of Cheshire which also would have been Welsh land.

No one in Liverpool considers themselves as English not unless they live on the outskirts. Which they can hardly be considered a scouser by the people who actually live in the city.

Most people in Liverpool have more of a connection with North Wales then the rest of the UK and vise versa. Most of my friends including myself have spent many days in the summers in many parts of North Wales as a kid. Not once were we ever insulted or mocked which would definitely happen in towns/cities in England.

Little England's Empire has fallen and it's about time people get back their rightful land that was stolen from them and then people will look at the map and realise how small and insignificant England actually is.
