The capital of Wales is [[Cardiff]].
The national sport is [[rugby union]], the national emblems are the leek and the daffodil. South Wales was formerly heavily industrialised, with [[coal]] mining and [[steel]]working, whereas North Wales is a pastoral area used mainly for [[sheep]]farming. Wales is famous for its sheep and also for a small minority of farmers who partake of certain unusual and seemingly unnatural activities with their sheep, it should be noted that this is a small minority.
Mining in South Wales has undergone a recent resurgence due to the discovery of new energy resources, particularly in the Crumlin area.
