East Wales (Welsh: Dwyrain Cymru) is a geographical sub-division and an International Territory Level Two (ITL 2) statistical region of Wales. It generally encompasses the easternmost parts of the country, and further sub-divided into four ITL 3 regions– Monmouthshire and Newport, Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan, Flintshire and Wrexham, Powys.
