The Act of Union
1536
The Act of Union with Wales came about between the years 1536 and 1543 as a result
of a series of laws passed in the English Parliament during the reign of King
Henry VIII (1509 – 1547).
Wales had been
under the control of the English Kings since the conquests of Edward I
(1272 - 1307) and had been ruled as a principality without representation at an
English parliament. Some areas were ruled by Marcher Lords (the Marches of
Chester, Shrewsbury and Hereford) with their own courts. This meant that some
laws were different in Wales to those in England.
Following the
Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485 and Henry VII's (1485 – 1509) victory there
the links between the two countries became a little stronger. Henry was Welsh
and many of his followers were from Wales. Henry Tudor was born at Pembroke
Castle, South West Wales
The second Tudor
monarch, Henry VIII was concerned that some of the Welsh lords were against his
Split with Rome and there was evidence to suggest that some of the Marcher
Lords were harboring English criminals. To combat this, and to protect the
Welsh coast from a French or Spanish invasion, Henry opted to take a firmer
grip on the Principality and effectively annex Wales as part of unified England
and Wales state with the same laws and administrative systems.
The Act of Union,
in reality a series of laws, meant that Wales was to be represented in English
parliaments. It also meant that English, not Welsh, was to be the first
language of the country at a time when about 95% of the people in Wales spoke
Welsh. It meant that it was almost impossible to get a government job without
being able to speak English and the affairs of state were conducted in English.
Church services were conducted in English only replacing Latin after 1551 but
and it took over 30 years to obtain a change in the law which allowed services
in Welsh.
These moves
presented a serious challenge to the Welsh language and are still resented by
some Welsh people today although Welsh has survived and has enjoyed a revival
in recent years.
