YEAH!!! No! Crucially it depends what you mean as "east Anglia". Basically, East Anglia was a kingdom in Dark Age Britain called the Kingdom of the East Angles. Essex - or rather the Kingdom of the East Saxons - was never part of East Anglia. East Anglia was made up of the counties of Norfolk and Suffolk and most if not all of Cambridgeshire. The area once ruled by the Kingdom of East Anglia is today the counties of Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire. East Anglia as a political entity does not exist and is only relevent in a purely cultural way and as such it does not include Essex. The local government area called the Region of the East of England does include Essex but this region is not synonymous with East Anglia which refers particularly to that part of the east of England formerly within the old kingdom.

No.

Essex and Kent are neighbouring counties in south-east England.
