Scotland, Wales - ____________________________
The first wave of the invaders, the Jutes or the Frisians occupied the extreme southeast: Kent and the Isle largely made up of the Saxons who had been expanding westwards across Frisia and to what is now known as Normandy. The final stage of the drift brought them to Britain by way of the Thames and the south coast. South, West and East Saxons give their names to the territory occupied.
Last came the Angles from the lower valley of the Elbe and southern Denmark, they made their landing on the east coast and moved up the rivers to the central part of the island to occupy the districts between the Wash and the Humber, and the North of the Humber. They founded large kingdoms, which had absorbed their weaker neighbors: East Anglia, Mercia, Northumbria
The invaders certainly prevailed over the natives so far as language was concerned,
the linguistic conquest was complete.
After the settlement
West Germanic tongues came to be spoken
all over Britain with the exception of a few distant regions where Celts were in the majority.
