That could be a great alternate history, but sadly the manga follow the true events of that time. Remember that Wales in that period wasn't at single kingdom, but a lot of small feudal terriotories with his own kings and noblity that will fight for they own objectives. Wales will be unified under Gruffydd ap Llywelyn from 1057 to 1063.

Also we can't forget that Askeladd try to do that, but avoiding endangering his land and allies in the process. When Sweyn discover the true conection between him and Wales, he don't have another option that kill him to protect Canute and his country.
