The very first stage of the existence of people on the GB are described as prehistoric. The 1st inhabitants (were Iberians) are believed to be hunters of the old Stone Age who came from the continent. The beginning of the Iron Age coincided with the arrival of invaders mainly from France they were Celts. The culture of Celts wasn’t barbaric. Their priests the Druids were skilful in teaching and administration. The Celts mixed up with the people who were already there in Britain and were called Britons. Divided into groups tribes, which tribe had its king. The Romans attacked Britain in 55 BC. Julius Caesar had broad the army of ten thousand men. The Britain fourth desperately (отчаянно) but were much weaker. After the victory Romans soon left Britain.

The real invasion placed only in 43 AD, when the Emperor Claudius decided to make Britain of a huge Roman Empire, but the fighting continued for almost 20 years after the Roman invasion. In 6 AD the Iceni tribe laid by the queen Boadicea and her two daughters’ revolted (восстали) but the Roman soldiers were much better trained then Boadicea’s men. But she led her soldiers into the battle and had a lot of success at first. Other tribes joined Boadicea and soon she had a huge army of one hundred thousand men. In the end, the Roman army was too strong for her soldiers – they were surrounded and had to give in (сдаться). Boadicea had to face the prospect of becoming prisoner of the Romans. She decided that the death would be better for her and her daughters. The history books tell us that she firstly gave her daughters poison and then took it herself.

In London there is a monument of the queen Boadicea. The Roman occupation was spread mainly over England while Wales, Scotland and Island remained unconquered areas, reserved (хранили) Celtic culture and traditions.

The Romans were in Britain for over 340 years. They imposed Pax Romana (meaning Roman piece (мир) which stopped tribes wars and protected Britain from the attacks of outsiders: Picts in the North, Saxons from overseas.

London is a Celtic name, but many towns that Romans built along the country, for example, Lancaster, Winchester and “castra” meaning a camp. Hadrian (Adrian) in 120 AD a great wall was built across Britain to protect the Romans again the attacks of Picts and Scots.

The Roman broad Christianity so Britain became a strong institution. The native language absorbed (перенимал) words at that time by the 6th century the Roman Empire was beginning to ruin and the roman soldiers had to return back to own to defend it from attacks the new barbaric invaders and Britain was left and ruled itself.

According to the righting Venerable Bede and English monarch Weber, Teutonic tribes of Angles, Saxons and Jutes were making rates against the Britain through out (в течении) of the 6th century. The British Celts tried to check the Jumanic tribes and that was the period of half legendary key knights around the table (Teutonic Knights), who defended Christianity against Angle-Saxons. The Jumanic invaders first arrived in small group trough out (в течении) the 15th century, but managed to settle and the British population increased to the mountain parts of GB. The Anglo-Saxons controlled the central part of Britain which was described as England, while the Celts went west taking with them their culture, language and Christianity.
