January 616: The Kingdom of Ergyng was a Welsh kingdom of the sub-Roman and early medieval period. The area was originally part of the Kingdom of Glywysing and Gwent, but seems to have become independent for a period under King Peibio Clafrog in the 5th or 6th century and again under Gwrfoddw Hen in the early 7th century, c. 615.

Disestablishment

January 856: The independence of Powys ended when Merfyn Frych, ruler of Gwynedd, married Nest, sister of king Cyngen. Upon the latter's death in 855, Merfyn Frych and Nest's son Rhodri inherited the kingdom, which was governed as if it were a part of Gwynedd.
