"The territory of Great Britain was inhabitated by Celtic tribes at first. The Celts arrived 2500 to 3000 ago. There were many tribes. The Celts worshipped many gods, and their priests were called druids. They offered human sacrifeces,too. Their language survives in Welsh and Gaelic.
Later in 43 A.D. the territory came under the domination of the Romans. They managed to subdue the Britons more by means of their higher civilization than by force. The Romans built camps, forts and roads through the land and also Hadrian's wall as the protection against the invasion of the Celtic tribes from the North. The Romans withdrew their legions in about 410 to defend their own country against the Germanic tribes.
The Jutes, the Angles and the Saxon attacked the territory after the departure of the Romans. These tribes arrived from German lands. The Britons weren´t trained in warfare, and that´s why they were easily subdued. For some time they tried to resist under the leadership of the legendary King Arthur. He was a a king of the Celts who probably lived in the 5th or 6th century. According to the legend, he became a king at the age of 15 and fought against all the enemies of his country. During the war in Rome, he left his kingdom and his wife Guinevre under protection of his nephew, who betrayed him and took over the country together with his wife. Arthur came back, killed his nephew, but soon was badly hurt and died too. Throughout the ages a lot of alements were added to this legend such as the Knights of the round table, Lancelot and the Magic sword.
Nevertheless the Britons were driven to the West (Wales and Cornwall). The Angles and Saxons fought with the Danes from the 8th century. King Alfred the Great was succesful in stopping their influence. A new kind of society- feudalism was established.
Then followed the invasion by French speaking Normans led by William, Duke of Normandy, who became William the Conqueror after defeating the Saxon King Harold in the Battle of Hastings in 1066. William the Conqueror established a strong central government and appointed Norman noblemen.
The opposition by nobles forced King John I to sign Magna Carta in 1215, a guarantee of rights and the rule of law.
In the 14th century there was the beginning of the wars with France. Edward III tried to legitimize his desire for expansion by making a claim to the French throne. The Hundred Years´War burst. The condition of people worsened. A violent epidemic of the plague reduced the population by one third and brought chaos in the countryside. There were several reasons for uprising: the failures of the wars in France, high taxes. The peasants under the leadership of Wat Tyler came to London."
