Wales is part of the United Kingdom, so it is not an independent country. It does, however, have some autonomy, including some deevolution of powers from London to Cardiff, in the form of the National Assembly for Wales. Rhodri Morgan is currently the First Minister for Wales. Wales is aslo represented on its own in the European Parliment, as well as in many international competitions, such as the World Cup and the European Rugby championships.
The Welsh have their own language, and a political and cultural heritage that is distinctly their own.
There is a small movement led by the political party Plaid Cymru which is working for Welsh independance, and status within both the European Union and the United Nations. That probably won't happen, but you never know.

Wales (Welsh: Cymru; pronounced IPA: /ˈkəmrɨ/) is one of the four constituent countries of the United Kingdom.
(That's a line from the above website.) So I think that should give you your answer.

Yes. It always has been. Never conquered by the Romans and has its own assembly now.
