Gwilym Powell, son of the Earl of Pembroke was therefore raised to be the first Dug (Duke) within Wales. Such a move as not calculated to impress the other magnates of the realm and Dug Gwilym struggled to impose himself on the political scene. This changed with the death of Hywel and the minority of his heir, Hywel II of Wales. With the Queen Dowager (Eleanor of Pembroke) named as Llywydd (President) of the Council, the Dug was named as her proxy in Council. Their early dominance was ended by the Treaty of Woodstock (signed Oct 29th 1513) but this brief period of importance was enough to cement the Dug's position amongst the Welsh nobility.
