-Anglo-Saxon Britain

This category covers the early medieval period, from the end of Roman Britain until the Norman conquest in 1066. It consisted of various Anglo-Saxon kingdoms until 927 when it was united as the Kingdom of England by King Æthelstan (r. 927–939). It became part of the North Sea Empire of Cnut the Great. The period of interest concludes with the Norman Invasion in 1066.
