With which English king did Llywelyn make a treaty in 1200?

  • Richard I

  • Henry II

  • John

  • Henry III

Answer

Llywelyn made a treaty with John in 1200, known as the Treaty of Wallingford, which recognized Llywelyn's power over Wales. John was forced to make the treaty because he was facing rebellion in England and needed Llywelyn's support. The treaty gave Llywelyn control over most of Wales, but it also required him to pay homage to John and to send troops to help John fight his wars.
