It may not have had a name, as it was not all one country. However the entire territory was called Britannia by the Romans.

Can you tell me About Julius Caesar invading Britain in 55BC?

There are a number of reasons why Caesar invaded Britain:Britain was helping the French (then known as the Gauls) fight against the Romans. Invading Britain as part of his Gallic War campaign helped ease the Gaul rebellions.Britain harboured Gaul leaders and Gaul fugitives, protecting them from the Romans. Invading Britain was one way of getting to them.Nobody from as far as Rome had conquered Britain before. Caesar wanted to be remembered in history, so he invaded Britain. To the Romans, reaching Britain was like the Americans reaching the moon.He heard Britain was rich in pearls and tin, which he wanted, as Rome could use them for crafting or trading.Britain is a very large island with very high coastlines. This made it extremely defensive and hard to invade, which is why Caesar wanted it, as it would be an impenetrable state for the Western Roman Empire.Also, Britain being a large island, meant it can produce a very effective defensive and offensive navy, something Caesar wanted for his empire.


Were Rome and Britain enemies?

Ancient Rome encountered Britain in 55 and 54 BC BCE when Julius Caesar invaded the island. The invasions were more like expeditions and Caesar came upon armed resistance each time. It is thought that he believed Britons were aiding the Gauls. Britain was not an enemy of the Roman empire until the emperor Claudius had the island invaded and it was added to the empire by Claudius in 43 AD CE. Rome prospered by controlling the wealth of Britain and like many of Rome's provinces there were revolts from time to time.
