Law and order was very harsh in Medieval England. It was believed that people would only learn how to behave properly if they feared what would happen to them if they broke the law. Even the 'smallest' offences had serious punishments.
The Britons were giving aid to their cousins in Gaul in their resistance against the Roman force commanded by Julius Caesar. Caesar invaded Britain, subdued it, imposed a tax, appointed compliant local rulers and left because he didn't have the resources to occupy it. Rome returned over a hundred years later to occupy it when troubles broke out again.

Yes, the Romans had wool. Their togas were made of wool and Roman weavers could weave wool into different weights. At the beginning of the city, a girl or woman had to be able to "work in wool" in order to be considered for marriage.

The Saxons had very little difficulty in dominating England as since the Roman time the English preferred the system client tribes, whereby any fighting was done by the Occupier. From this position they were able to fight the British and gain control of Wessex, this was there strongest base I would say that it was fair to say that England had fallen by 500AD and was converted from Christianity to Paganism. Meanwhile the rest of the country that we call Britain remained Christian and consisted of Wales, the Welsh Marches, West Wales (Cornwall, Devon and the Summerlands) Lancashire, parts of the North and Scottish tribes. The Saxons were under continuous attack by Irish, Angels and Jutes The Roman Catholics invade in 597 and have victory in England by 664. 710 the British lose the Devon coast to the Saxons however Mercia and Wessex remain under constant attack especially from the Danes. 925 King Athelstan writes the Law of England 940 Hywell Dda writes law of Wales England and Wales declare peace in order to fight the Vikings, Wessex defends from Dorset down to Exeter while the Welsh defend from Exeter and all of Cornwall. So in reality the Saxons never really controlled all of England and in 1013 they were defeated by Denmark and the Danish King Cnut rules and introduces new laws So you can see the Saxons never really controlled England but I would suggest 925 is the date you are looking for. The force that attacked and succeeded was the Roman Catholics who achieved final victory in 1120. These lasted until they were defeated by Henry VIII.
changes such as the hygiene of places took place, as well as less powerful government, meaning the public would not listen to them when they tried to put an order out in the medieval times to clean the streets of excrement!
Although there were a lot of changes after the Norman conquest in 1066, some parts of England stayed the same. Here are some of the examples:Villagers grow crops whether their Lord was Norman/Saxon.The Normans had the same cures and treatments.They kept how people farm the same.They use the same type of money to pay their taxes.Yes the Normans were ruthless and brutal to the Saxons, however, King William also agreed to keep these things the same in order for England to like him
A+ - In correct order: Etruscans control Rome, Roman Republic established, Battle of Zama won by romans, Romans destroy Carthage.
