why are the welsh not very well known throught the world unlike the scots,
you always hear about scots history, scots in films , scots inventions , scots warriors etc but never welsh.I have scots and welsh heritage but I am more proud of my scots heritage as it seems the scots have had much more of an impact on the world unlike the welsh.Does anyone have similer feelings or am i wrong?

Because in some countries they say that Welsh people is English!No bl***y way - Wales has the oldest language in Europe , we had famous people such as Catherine Zeta Jones , Kathrine Jenkins , Rhys Ifans - i could name them all day!Welsh history - we owned nearly 3/4 of England at one time.Wales was once the strongest country.We have eisteddfod that no one else has the same sort of event - And Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerwchchwyndrobwllsantesseilioggogogoch is not a city it is nearly a town but it is a village.
But also we have been shamed by other countries - in the First second world war some people bullied welsh people in the army and gave us the leading front to make sure that the Welsh would be killed first - why not make a film on that.
Some films that famous from Wales is Twin Cities with Rhys Ifans and Hedd Wyn that won an Oscar for!

Im english and I think theyre all friends, since we're in the same country. There have been many wars and divisions in society...often english would dominate and suppress the others but now thats stopped (Scots get no university fees yet they're subsidised by British (including welsh, english and n. irish) taxes...which is annnoying personally. And also, now older irish, welsh or scottish tend to have anti-english views but as time goes by everyone forgets and forgives in reality we would get on well with anybody from the other nations...maybe a bit of banter but whatever..
