 Kingdom of Powys - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Powys was united with Gwynedd when king Merfyn Frych of Gwynedd married princess Nest, the sister of king Cyngen of Powys, the last representative of the Gwertherion dynasty.
In 616 Powys was attacked by Æthelfrith of Northumbria in his pursuit of a political rival, Edwin of Northumbria, whom had sought refuge in Gwynedd.
Through-out the early Dark Ages, Powys was ruled by the Gwerthernion dynasty, a family claiming decent jointly from the marriage of Vortigern and Princess Elen, the daughter of Magnus Maximus.

 The Sub-Kingdoms of Gwynedd
Created as a sub-kingdom of Gwynedd in the late 5th century by Einion Yrth, it later merged back into Gwynedd.
It is in Gwynedd that one of the last signs of the concept of Roman citizenship can be found, on a gravestone where a "cousin" of Maelgwn Fawr (Maelgwn Gwynedd, High King) proudly proclaims himself a Venedotis Cives, a citizen of Gwynedd.
Whomever the motivator of this tribal migration, Cunedda himself was said to have been ruler of the Manau Goutodin (which was a sub-division, forming the westernmost part of the Goutodin kingdom in modern Lothian) and was induced to migrate south with eight sons and one grandson.

King Owain "Gwynedd" suffered a major defeat against the English King Henry II in 1152, and was obliged to change his title from "king" to "prince" acknowledging English overlordship, and reducing Wales in status from an independent national kingdom to a principality of the English kingdom.
Owain "Gwynedd" thereafter was officially styled "Prince of Wales" by the English, though his Welsh subjects continued to refer to him as "King of Wales".
In 1081 he returned to Gwynedd and defeated and slew the usurper Trahern in battle at Mynydd Carn, however, no sooner had Gruffydd II won Gwynedd when he was captured by the Normans [through the treachery of one of his own officers] and held prisoner by them in England for twelve years.

 Owain Ddantgwynn & the Identity of Arthur
Founded by Cunedda Wledig, Gwynedd was almost certainly the most important kingdom of the age, and as borders were extremely fluid it is entirely plausible that the influence of Cunedda's progeny spread into Powys as well as the Gwyneddian sub-kingdoms.
5 At the death of Owain Ddantgwyn, the kingdoms of Gwynedd and Rhôs were again ruled separately by his successors - Maglocunus (Maelgwyn) in Gwynedd and Cuneglasus in Rhôs.
Bearing in mind the importance of Owain Ddantgwyn, and the fact that many of the borders of Dark Age kingdoms were often in a fairly fluid state, it does not require too great a leap of faith to propose that Viroconium may have been his power base also.

Supremacy over the Cheshire plain was to be disputed by Northumbria and Mercia for some years to come, Cadwallon of Gwynedd and Penda of Mercia joining forces at one stage to defeat Edwin.
Gruffudd Maelor, who inherited Maelor Saesneg on Madog's death in 1236, entered fully into Anglo-Welsh society, marrying Emma Audley, the daughter of a prominent Shropshire family, and yet remained subject to the power of the kingdom of Gwynedd, especially under its new leader, Llywelyn ap Gruffudd.
On the death of Madog ap Maredudd in 1160 the kingdom of Powys was split into two, the northern part of the kingdom, inherited by his son Gruffudd Maelor, becoming known as Powys Fadog after Gruffudd's son, Madog.

And when Marek--heir to Gwynedd's last degenerate deposed Deryni despots--marched into Gwynedd at the head of an army, even the Regents had to admit that Rhys Michael must take to the field himself as king to repel the pretender.
He swore that the power of the throne--from now on and for all time to come--was to be held by Gwynedd's rightful king.
