You may think it's a bit odd that I'm making a video in the Union Flag Series about the Welsh flag, given that it's the only part of the United Kingdom not represented on the country's flag. However Wales is great, and it's flag has some interesting history and symbolism so you're just going to have to deal with it. In this one I'll be look at the Welsh Dragon Flag, at the figures of Cadwalladr ap Cadwallon (and his dad), Owain Glyndŵr, Henry VII and many more.
