Ironic, all this fuss & fear about the French & Germans interfering in our affairs; they have been trying and succeeding in controlling our affairs in Cymru since Alfred the Great, through William ll Rufus* and Edward l right up to Elizabeth ll of England (Elizabeth l of Scotland), today they are universally known as English, and now I've come to fraternal Brittany only to be run by the French again.
* Rufus's father William l the Bastard wasn't a problem for us, even going on a pilgrimage to Ty Ddewi; he was more of a problem (if a conquest may be referred to as a problem) for the Angles & the Saxons in their nascent united state.
