Treaty of Aberconwy

Gwynedd after the Treaty of Aberconwy 1277
  Gwynedd, Llywelyn ap Gruffudd's principality
  Territories of Dafydd ap Gruffudd
  Territories ceded forever to the English Crown

The Treaty of Aberconwy was signed on the 10th of November 1277,[1] and was made between King Edward I of England and Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, Prince of Wales. It followed Edward's invasion of Llywelyn's territories earlier that year. The treaty re-established peace between the two but also essentially guaranteed that Welsh self-rule would end upon Llywelyn's death and represented the completion of the first stage of the Conquest of Wales by Edward I.[2]
