In eastern Britain Anglo-Saxons took land from the native British people or settled down to farm alongside them. It is not clear how much intermarriage there was. A new culture developed that was essentially Anglo-Saxon, and small kingdoms grew up.
By 600 about half of Britain was ruled by Anglo-Saxon kings. The kingdom of the East Saxons, or Essex , extended over the area that became the counties of Essex, Middlesex and much of Hertfordshire, including the site of Roman London.
Anglo-Saxons
Anglo-Saxons is the name applied to the groups of people who arrived in Britain from northern Germany and Denmark in the 400s. They spoke various dialects of a language related to German that we now call Old English.
