- History_of_Plaid_Cymru abstract "Plaid Cymru; The Party of Wales (Welsh pronunciation: [ˈplaɪd ˈkəmri]; often shortened to Plaid) originated in 1925 after a meeting held at that year's National Eisteddfod in Pwllheli, Caernarfonshire (now Gwynedd). Representatives from two Welsh nationalist groups founded the previous year, Byddin Ymreolwyr Cymru (\"the Army of Welsh Home Rulers\") and Y Mudiad Cymreig (\"The Welsh Movement\"), agreed to meet and discuss the need for a \"Welsh party\". Founded originally under the name Plaid Genedlaethol Cymru, the National Party of Wales, the party would attract members from the left, right and centre of the political spectrum, including both monarchists and republicans, whose principal aims include the promotion of the Welsh language and for the political independence of the Welsh nation.Although Saunders Lewis is regarded as the founder of Plaid Cymru, the historian John Davies argues that the ideas of the left-wing activist D. J. Davies, which were adopted by the party's president Gwynfor Evans after the Second World War, were more influential in shaping its ideology in the long term. According to the historian John Davies, D. J. Davies was an \"equally significant figure\" as was Lewis in the history of Welsh nationalism, but it was Lewis's \"brilliance and charismatic appeal\" which was firmly associated with Plaid in the 1930s.After initial success as an educational pressure group, the events surrounding Tân yn Llŷn (Fire in Llŷn) in the 1930s led to the party adopting a pacifist political doctrine and protests against the flooding of Capel Celyn in the 1950s further helped define its politics. These early events were followed by Evans's election to Parliament as the party's first MP in 1966, the successful campaigning for the Welsh Language Act of 1967 and Evans going on hunger strike for a dedicated Welsh-language television channel in 1981.Plaid Cymru is the third largest political party in Wales, with 11 of 60 seats in the National Assembly for Wales. From 2007 to 2011, it was the junior partner in the One Wales coalition government, with Welsh Labour. Plaid holds one of the four Welsh seats in the European Parliament, three of the 40 Welsh seats in the UK Parliament, and it has 205 of 1,264 principal local authority councillors. According to accounts filed with the Electoral Commission for the year of 2004, the party has an income and expenditure of about £500,000.".
