The history of England is a series of permanent seizures and liberation, heroic victories and defending their lands, the formation of culture and attempts to plant it around the world. The land where England is now located, BC were inhabited by Celtic tribes. They called themselves Britons. Due to the invasion of the troops of Julius Caesar, the territory was called the Roman Britain. When the Roman Empire broke up, the Britons asked for help from the barbarian Germans to protect them from the Picts and Scots.
The Germans, using the privileged position, gradually began to press the Britons from their lands, and the first kingdoms appeared on the conquered sections. Periodically, one of the kingdoms became the main one and controlled most of the territory.
About those times difficult for the country remind different artifacts, which are preserved in English museums. Local residents honor their history and tell everyone - both schoolchildren and tourists - for edification: how important it is to drop ambitions and unite to preserve the integrity of the state.
Some historians are sure that the account of the rulers of England follows from 1066 - this is a kind of zero point, after which the First, Second, Fifth and other kings began to appear.
