The history behind such an establishment is unclear, but medieval Breton, Angevin and Welsh sources connect it to a figure known as [[Conan Meriadoc]]. Welsh literary sources assert that Conan came to Armorica on the orders of the Roman usurper [[Magnus Maximus]],{{efn| Magnus Maximus was a native of [[Galicia (Spain)|Galicia]] in [[Spain]], being born on the estate of [[Count Theodosius]].}} who sent some of his British troops to Gaul to enforce his claims and settled them in Armorica. This account was supported by the Counts of Anjou, who claimed descent from a Roman soldier{{efn|Presumably this soldier was in the employ of [[Gratian]].}} expelled from Lower Brittany by Conan on Magnus's orders.{{Citation needed|date=March 2021}}
