Edward I, king of England, was opposed by this Prince of Wales when he invaded in 1277:
Llywelyn ap Gruffydd
Llywelyn ab Iorwerth
Llywelyn Fawr
Daffydd ap Gruffydd
Gruffydd ap Gwenwynwyn
Llywelyn ap Gruffydd.
Llywelyn ap Gruffydd opposed Edward I in the latter?s invasion of Wales in 1277. Upon Edward?s succession to the English throne in 1274, he demanded Llywelyn pay homage to him before he recognized Llywelyn as Prince of Wales. Llywelyn stalled, suspicious of Edward, and finally Edward decided to force Llywelyn into submission in November of 1276. Edward was aided by Llywelyn?s brother Daffydd ap Gruffydd and Prince Gruffydd ap Gwenwynwyn of Powys–both of whom Llywelyn had expelled for plotting his assassination.
