It was 1285, not '84, and it was the Normans. They had been fighting a vicious and devastating war against the forces of Llewelyn the Great, who is the only Welsh king to have succesfully united his entire country.
He was killed in action in 1285, after which his army was routed and soon afterwards, the Normans embarked upon a massive castle-building programme across the nation to stamp their military might upon the country and try to subdue the Welsh permanently.
However, this was only partially succesful- large swathes of the nation remained under the control of regional warlords or the remnants of the Welsh royal family, and in many quarters, it was dangerous even for full battalions of Norman troops to venture far from their castles or garrisons.

Why is Wales a region of the UK?
Until the late 13th century, when it was conquered by the English army of Edward 1, Wales was an independent country. It remained as a conquered territory until 1536, when it was integrated into the combined countries of England and Wales by Henry the Eighth. Even today, Government statistics often give statistics for England and Wales as a combination, with the rest of the UK having its own statistics. Welsh people are still very proud of their heritage and 'Welshness', even though only a minority are able to speak their own language of Welsh which is mainly spoken in rural communities of North Wales. All road signs and official paperwork in Wales is bi-lingual - English and Welsh. Welsh people are classed as British in international law and travel on a British passport if travelling overseas.
Was Edward I a powerful king?
Edward I was probably more powerful than those who preceeded or followed him. He conquered Wales, and was able to maintain control in Scotland. Whether he was a good king, I think, is another matter.
