The ASSYRIAN ROD.

Adam of Usk in the 15th Century writing of Owain Glyndwr's assault on the English of Gwent, likens Glyndwr to ''a second Assyrian, the rod of God's anger, he did deeds of unheard-of cruelty with fire and sword''. This inspires me to write a fictional futuristic alternate Welsh history story, titled 'The Assyrian Rod' which will be developed in this blog,also given same title. This blog will also promote the writing of alternate Welsh Histories:past, present and future.

DOOMS DAY 2024: EITHINWYR - WELSH RESISTANCE FIGHTS BACK AGAINST CORPORATE COLONY CYMRU

 
The Politicians betrayed them and the Nationalists  proved to be pathetic Fringe fb Fantasy Islanders of a peculiar Pound Shop Patriotism spawned out of the Rali Cilmeri Radical Nationalist Graveyard. This was of course a Patriots Fools Paradise.
 
 
The UKIP retreat from Europe was but a dream and still by 2020 the Tories ruled in England but a much weakened Labour held on in Wales with an alliance with Plaid Cymru Greens in a Valleys enclave known as the Rainbow Republic, sounds radical but in reality these 'Devolution Dilletantes' as Cultural Liberal Nationalism in the rural areas had  sold out to the Windmill Masters and thus were no more than puppets of the Corporate Colony Cymru state of Utility Company Venture Capitalist Rule. For the people for most part a Colonial Underclass it was more of the same oppression, tyranny and exploitation with out hope.


Until the day of Yr Eithynwyr arrived to fight back.

IEUAN AP BLEDDYN Worker and Rebel of Ruthin 1400 and Leader of the 1404 Welsh Peasants Revolt.


Turning Hanes Glyndwr on it's head, an alternative history where Ieuan ap Bleddyn a 'Worker of Ruthin' joins Glyndwr and other rebels in the great raid of September 1400. Iuean in the following years becomes a key leader of Glyndwr's peasant Army but by 1404 becomes concerned that Glyndwr's popular support  for Peasant aspirations is giving way to the demands of the more intolerant beliefs and ends of Rhys Gethin and other hardliners who seek to resist further peasant ideals of their personal freedom and popular sovereignty. The turning point takes place in Machynlleth at time of Glyndwr's coronation and Rhys Gethin seeking to undo such and make himself ruler of the almost liberated Cymru. To be continued.

AN ALTERNATIVE HANES GLYNDWR

Bringing Glyndwr's Cenedl Cymru Rydd Alive which does not look ever to be a reality as is the failure of Machynlleth  to deliver an annual Glyndwr festival. So why not an annual Alternative Hanes Glyndwr based on the below:

Promises to be much more fun than the usual 'Use By Date' worn out Pathetic Fringe Cilmeri Crap stuff.
