The beginning of the Anglo-Saxon period roughly corresponds with which historical event? A.)the Norman invasion of Britain B.)the Viking invasion of Britain C.)the Roman pull-out from Britain D.)the Battle of Hastings
The correct answer is C.)the Roman pull-out from Britain
When the Romans left Britain, various groups of people started infighting over supremacy on the islands. The anglo-saxons used this to completely conquer the land which was an easy job for them considering how advanced their warriors were compared to the locals. Normans actually ended anglo-saxon rule much later.
