What is Anglo-Saxon Britain: History Overview about?
The Roman withdrawal from Britain in the early 5th century AD created a power vacuum that allowed the Anglo-Saxons to establish seven kingdoms known as the Heptarchy. Anglo-Saxon society was hierarchical and polytheistic, with a focus on agriculture and trade. Key figures include King Alfred the Great, who defended Wessex and laid the groundwork for a unified England, and King Edward the Confessor, whose death led to significant battles including Fulford and Stamford Bridge in 1066.
