The name England comes from the words “Angle land”．The Angles were people who came from northern Germany in the 5th and 6th centuries，after the Romans had left.The French name for England is Angleterre，which also means “Angle land”．There were also invasions (侵略) of southern England by Saxons and Jutes (people from another part of northern Germany)．English people are sometimes called AngloSaxons.The Celts who used to live in this area were forced to move back into Scotland，Ireland，Cornwall and into Western France (the area known as Brittany)．
England at first became a series of kingdoms，the strongest of which was Wes (the name comes from WestSaxon)．The names of many of the areas in England come from this period—for example，the name Sus comes from SouthSaxon，Es from EastSaxon，and East Anglia from EastAngle.The Vikings then came from Denmark，and later the Normans invaded from France. ually England，Wales，Scotland and Northern Ireland were united，forming the United Kingdom.
The English language is the main language spoken throughout England，although there are many different accents.It can be difficult to know how to spell or to pronounce some English words，because the language has been influenced by Latin and Greek (languages used at the time of the Romans，and used in religion and education until recent times)，German (the language of the Angles，Saxons and Jutes)，French(the language of the Normans)，Gaelic/Scots (Celtic languages) and Danish (the language of the Vikings)．
