Fun stuff
The Anglo-Saxons were made up of three tribes who invaded England from Northern Europe around AD450 (over 1000 years ago). The tribes were called the JUTES, the ANGLES and the SAXONS.
For a long time England wasn't really one country. Anglo-Saxon kings ruled lots of little kingdoms across the land but eventually they joined together as one country. Anglo-Saxon kings ruled in England for about 500 years.
The last Anglo-Saxon king was called HAROLD II. He was killed in 1066 at the BATTLE OF HASTINGS by an army from France called the NORMANS.
Watch and copy the video below to draw King Harold at the BATTLE OF HASTINGS. Unfortunately I filmed the whole thing sideways AND the video stops before the end of the drawing but here is a picture of what it looked like at the end. Have fun!
