Gwynedd is an area of North-West Wales, including Snowdonia.
In ancient times it was a kingdom.
In 1974 it was resurrected as the name of a county.
In 1996 the county was abolished, but the larger part of it (excluding Aberconwy and the Isle of Anglesey) is now the Gwynedd unitary authority area. The previous county continues for ceremonial purposes as a preserved county.
Gwynedd is part of the North Wales Police area.
