The Anglo-Saxons were a group of people who lived in England from around the 5th to the 11th centuries. They were made up of tribes like the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes, who migrated from what is now Germany and Denmark. The Anglo-Saxons established several kingdoms and are known for their rich culture, including art, literature, and the famous epic poem, Beowulf. During their time, the Anglo-Saxons developed a system of governance and law, laying the groundwork for modern England. They also introduced the use of the Old English language, which evolved into the English we speak today. Their influence can still be seen in many aspects of British culture and history.
