Rhodri ap Merfyn became King of Gwenydd in 844 CE. Through marriage to Angharad ferch Meurig, Rhodri expanded his kingdom to largely comprise modern-day Wales, giving him the title King of the Britons.

More important than the territorial increase, however, was the political intelligence that Angharad brought to the marriage.
