  1. 2.  Cynan Meiriadog Conan Meredoc Conan Meriadec was born 355, Britain (son of Brycan Eudaf Hen of Roman Empire and Eusebia The Younger of Roman Empire); died 421.

    Notes:

    He would have been born in Great Britain at the end of the 4th century and passed to Gaul towards 384 , with the tyrant Màxim Máximo , whom he served, and for which he would have been appointed as Duke of Armorica ( dux bellorum, warlord ) and for 26 years he would have ruled the Armorica (corresponding to modern Britain) under the dependence of the Roman Empire .
    In 409 , the Armoricans rebelled and gave the sovereign authority to Conan, an authority that remained until his death in 421 , leaving the power to his dismay that were later princes and kings and finally Dukes of Britain . According to the legend he resided in Nantes . Another version presented at Breuddwyd Macsen Wledig , one of the Mabinogion's tales , says he would have been commissioned by Maximus of the government of Britain.
    Alain Bouchart thinks he would have died 392 and therefore could not have been proclaimed king in 409. For Arthur de La Borderie, Conan Meriadec would only be a fable. [1] Joël Cornette states: "There is no convincing historical evidence of the existence of Conan, and on the other hand it is known that Magne Màxim actually disembarked at the mouth of the Rhine." [2]
    The legend of Conan has endured and served the political ambitions of the last dukes at the time that they wanted to legitimize their power and emancipate themselves from the king of France.
    In the tradition Conan Meriadec was the father of Gradlon (Gradlon Meu or the Great) that happened to him.
