The territory of today's England was divided for some decades during the 9th and 10th centuries into two kingdoms. The demarcation line was from London to Chester, with everything to the south and west being in England, and everything north and east governed by Vikings of the Danelaw. The Danelaw existed from 884 to 954, when Eric Bloodaxe was driven out.
The Danes continued to claim interest in England, and conquered it in 1016 under King Canute, who was Danish. This might be viewed as a continuation of the Danelaw, extending it to all of England, but in fact is regarded as beibg England, rather than Danelaw. Danish rule of England did not last, however.
