Abstract
This article reassesses the nature of the civil war in Wales and in particular the apparent support for the king found in most of the Principality. It explores royalist allegiance afresh, questioning the depth and strength of that allegiance, finding evidence for strained and waning support for the king's cause from quite early in the civil war and assessing both how and why parliament was able to secure most of Wales very quickly and without a fight in the latter stages of the war.
