Wales, constituent unit of the United Kingdom
that forms a westward extension of the island of Great
Britain. The capital and main commercial and financial
center is Cardiff. Famed for its strikingly rugged
landscape, the small nation of Wales—which comprises six
distinctive regions—was one of Celtic Europe’s most
prominent political and cultural centers, and it retains
aspects of culture that are markedly different from those of
its English neighbors.![]() |
