History of England By Aurora Migani

Origin of Britain... The first population of England was... CELTS. In prehistory Britain wasn’t an island. It become an island about 50 century B.C. The old british population was called Celts, they arrived from Europe across the english channel and for a long time weren’t any new arrivals.

Druids Celts worshipped gods and goddeses. Their priests were called DRUIDS. Celtic tradition live on in our culture today by their descendant:Irish,Scottish and Welsh.

The most important monuments are: • Stonehenge and • Hadrian’s wall

Нadrian’s wall Hadrian’s wall is an important roman archeological site. It was build to stop the schottish tribes coming from England.

When romans arrived to Britain... The romans stayed for almost 400 years. Roman introduce towns. British people followed the roman way of life. The Romans gave the name Britain to the country, they come to Britain in 55 B.C., led by Julius Caesar. The romans built roads. Roman roads are long and straight and we still use them today. They had clean waters, acqueduct and bath.

When romans arrived to Britain Romans built a bridge and a town calledLondiniumother important towns take their name from the latin wordCastra (Chester, Doncaster..) Many english words come from latin (Dentist). Londinium

Roman governament... They brought a system of government to the whole country.

Other population of Britain When the roman empire began to collapse the romans left Britain. The island was conquered by: Angle Saxon,Vikings and Normans.

The road to democracy In medieval times kings ruled with absolute power. Magna carta was signed in 1215 by John Lackland, so Britain became a constitutional monarchy.Magna Carta is a document wich limited power of king. King John was called Lackland because during his reing England lost territories in France. Resistance of people to Lackland is famous by the legends of Robin Hood and Ivanhoe

How britain became protestant One of Henry successors was Elisabeth I,a great queen. During her reing England became a power.

A Brief History of England

A brief history of england (this is sort of like covering the majority of north american history in 7 or 8 s) discussion question to start off what are the ... – powerpoint ppt presentation.

  • What are the legacies of the early English Monarchs (list them all note the ones that effect the U.S. today)?
  • BC years - native Britons / Celts inhabited the area
  • AD 43 - Romans arrived in Britain (eventually built Hadrians Wall)
  • AD 500s - Angles / Saxons arrived from Europe
  • AD 800s - Vikings arrived eventually settled during the Early Middle Ages
  • 1066 - Anglo-Saxon king Edward died with no heir
  • Thus, Britains throne was open William the Conqueror (of Normandy, France) invaded - he became the King of England
  • His successors established a strong High Middle Ages kingdom
  • Four generations after William the Conqueror, one of his descendants, John, became king
  • John was not popular due to military defeats tax increases, in 1215 he was forced by nobles to accept the Magna Carta
  • The Magna Carta limited royal power, prevented the king from raising taxes w/out consulting the nobles, granted trial by jury
  • Johns heirs saw the writing on the wall - they would have to consult the nobles the growing middle class merchants of the Late Middle Ages
  • In other words, they consulted Parliament
  • By AD 1400 (Late Middle Ages) Parliament was divided into the House of Lords (nobles clergy) the House of Commons (knights merchants)
  • During this same time period (Late Middle Ages) England was at war with France (because France wanted all European continental land controlled by England)
  • This was the Hundred Years War (1337-1453), France won (aided by Joan of Arc)
  • This war delayed the arrival of the Renaissance in England (late 1400s)
  • The Hundred Years War also created an internal English conflict - noble families upset about Englands defeat struggled to gain the throne (Parliament gains power of the purse)
  • This new conflict was the War of the Roses - the Lancaster familys symbol red rose the York familys symbol white rose
  • Finally, in 1485, a Lancaster (Henry Tudor) won, married the York heiress, became Henry VII
  • This marked the beginning of Absolutism in England (an admittedly weak absolutism)
  • The Age of Absolutism (1500 - 1789) was a period during which powerful European monarchs ruled, believed that their right to rule came directly from God
  • This latter belief was known as divine right - the theory that monarchs received power from God, answered only to God for their actions
