never had before. Prior to the Romans, Britain was a disparate set of
peoples with no sense of national identity beyond that of their local
tribe. In the wake of the Roman occupation, every 'Briton' was
aware of their 'Britishness'. This defined them as something different
from those people who came after them, colouring their national
mythology, so that the Welsh could see themselves as the true heirs
of Britain, whilst the Scots and Irish were proud of the fact that they
had never been conquered by Rome.
