In the 1st century AD, the Romans invaded and brought Roman customs and laws to the region, but eventually left in the early 5th century.

In the 11th century, the Danish conquered England briefly. Edward III asserted his claim to the French throne, starting the Hundred Years' War. James VI of Scotland became King of England in a Personal Union. The Glorious Revolution saw William III crowned king. The United Kingdom of Great Britain was formed in 1707.
