julius caesar
julius caesar invaded britain in 55 and 54 bc as part of his gallic wars. according to caesar, the britons had been overrun or culturally assimilated by other celtic tribes during the british iron age and had been aiding caesar's enemies. he received tribute, installed the friendly king mandubracius over the trinovantes, and returned to gaul. planned invasions under augustus were called off in 34, 27, and 25 bc. in 40 ad, caligula assembled 200,000 men at the channel on the continent, only to have them gather seashells ("musculi") according to suetonius, perhaps as a symbolic gesture to proclaim caligula's victory over the sea. three years later, claudius directed four legions to invade britain and restore the exiled king verica over the atrebates. the romans defeated the catuvellauni, and then organized their conquests as the province of britain (). by the year 47, the romans held the lands southeast of the fosse way. control over wales was delayed by reverses and the effects of boudica's uprising, but the romans expanded steadily northward.
