Anglo-Saxon Britain by 800 AD

By the year 800 AD much of Britain was ruled by the Anglo-Saxons. They had arrived from Germany and pushed the native Britons into Cornwall, Wales and Scotland. They established seven kingdoms, each with its own kings and laws.

These kingdoms competed for power and supremacy, gaining and losing power. Sometimes one kingdom stood out as the most powerful but none was ever able to totally destroy the others. This period of time is known as the Heptarchy (From Greek, Hepta meaning seven, and Arche meaning rule).

Historians often split these kingdoms into major and minor kingdoms. The major kingdoms were East Anglia, Mercia, Wessex and Northumbria.
