The Anglo-Saxons were a group of Germanic tribes, primarily the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes, who migrated to Britain from the 5th century onwards, significantly altering the cultural landscape. In contrast to the indigenous Celtic tribes, the Anglo-Saxons brought distinct languages, customs, and societal structures, including a more organized system of kingdoms. They also introduced a new agricultural and economic framework, which contrasted with the existing Celtic practices. This blend of cultures led to the development of a unique Anglo-Saxon identity in Britain.
