| ARTICLES RELATED TO History of Wales |  |  |  | History of Wales: Encyclopedia II - History of England - Religious Conflict and the Civil WarA number of assassination attempts were made on the Protestant King James I, notably the Main Plot and Bye Plots of 1603, and most famously, on 5th November 1605, the Gunpowder Plot, by a group of Catholic conspirators, led by Guy Fawkes, which was stoked up and served as further fuel for antipathy in England to the Catholic faith.
The First English Civil War broke out in 1642, largely as a result of an ongoing series of conflicts between the then King, Charles I, and Parliament. The defeat of the Royalist army by the New Model Army o ...

|  |  |  | History of Wales: Encyclopedia II - Great Britain - Geographical definitionWith an area of 218 595km² (84,400 sq.mi) the island of Great Britain is the largest of the British Isles. It is the largest island in Europe, and eighth largest in the world. It is the third most populous island after Java and Honshu.
Great Britain stretches over approximately ten degrees of latitude on its longer, north-south axis. Geographically, the island is marked by low, rolling countryside in the east and south, while hills and mountains predominate in the western and northern regions. Before the end of the last ice age, Grea ...

|  |  |  | History of Wales: Encyclopedia II - History of England - Tudor EnglandThe Wars of the Roses culminated in the eventual victory of the relatively unknown Henry Tudor, Henry VII, at the Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485, where the Yorkist Richard III was slain, and the succession of the Lancastrian House was ultimately assured. Whilst in retrospect it is easy for us to date the end of the Wars of the Roses to the Battle of Bosworth Field, Henry VII could afford no such complacency. Before the end of his reign, two pretenders would try to wrest the throne from him, aided by remnants of the Yorkist faction at home ...

|  |  |  | History of Wales: Encyclopedia II - History of England - The Industrial RevolutionThe late 18th and early 19th centuries saw considerable social upheaval as a largely agrarian society was transformed by technological advances and increasing mechanisation, which was the Industrial Revolution. Much of the agricultural workforce was uprooted from the countryside and moved into large urban centres of production, as the steam-based production factories could undercut the traditional cottage industries, due to economies of scale and the increased output per worker made possible by the new technologies. The consequent overcrowdi ...

|  |  |  | History of Wales: Encyclopedia II - Politics of the United Kingdom - DevolutionIn addition to the House of Commons, Scotland now has its own parliament and Wales and Northern Ireland have national assemblies. England, however, has been ignored by the UK Government, a fact that has led to the formation of democratic reform groups such as The Campaign for an English Parliament. Some members of the devolved bodies are elected by a form of proportional representation. Although the new devolved governments have some legislative and other powers, they do not have anywhere near the power of the UK parliament. There are also f ...

|  |  |  | History of Wales: Encyclopedia II - History of England - The Anglo-Saxon Conquest of Celtic BritainIn the wake of the Romans, who had abandoned the south of the island by 410 in order to concentrate on more pressing difficulties closer to home, what is now England was progressively settled by successive and often complementary waves of Germanic tribesmen.
These Germanic tribes first came when they were invited by Vortigern, King of the Britons, as mercenaries to help the Britons during their wars against the Irish and the Picts.
The prevailing view is that waves of Germanic people, Jutes together with undoubtedly large numbe ...

William ordered the compilation of the Domesday Book, a survey of the entire population and their lands and property for tax purposes.

Great Britain - Usage of the term Great Britain.
Great Britain is also widely, but incorrectly, used as a synonym for the political state properly known as the United Kingdom (see below).
This common usage is technically inaccurate as the United Kingdom includes Northern Ireland, in addition to the three countries that make up Great Britain, as shown by its full name "the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland", and also because the three countries that make up Great Britain its ...

In response Rhys built Aberdyfi Castle. As ruler, he proceeded to challenge the new king of England, Henry II (reigned 1154–1189). Having successfully held out against Henry for a year or two, Rhys was forced to ask for terms and met the king in 1158. Rhys was stripped of Ceredigion and other territories whi ...

|  |  |  | History of Wales: Encyclopedia II - Economic history of Britain - Breakdown of Pax Britannica and New ImperialismIn a scramble for overseas markets between the Franco-Prussian War and World War, Europe added almost 9 million square miles (23,000,000 km²) — one-fifth of the land area of the globe — to its overseas colonial possessions. Ushering out the cavalier colonialism of the mid-Victorian era, the age of Pax Britannica, the late nineteenth century Romantic Age was an era of "empire for empire's sake". But scholars debate the causes and ramifications of this period of colonialism, dubbed "The New Imperialism" to distinguish it from earlier ...

History of the United Kingdom - Clement Attlee.
The landslide 1945 Election returned Labour to power and Clement Attlee became prime minister. The party had clear aims. Several controversal policies were enacted, including the nationalisation of utilities and the long-distance transport system and the creation of the modern Welfare State. India became independent, and Britain's role in Palestine ended. Attlee's first Health Secretary, Aneurin Bevan, fought against general medical disapproval, to create the British National Health Service that ...

Even the name of his replacement is unknown. Archaeology has shown that some Roman forts south of the Forth-Clyde isthmus were rebuilt and enlarged, although others appear to have been abandoned. Roman coins and pottery are found circulating at native settlement sites in what are now the Scottish lowlands in the years before 100, indicating growing Romanisation.
Around 105, however, a serious setback appears to have happened at the hands of the indig ...
