The Saxons were a tribe of Germanic people who originally came from the area of current northern Germany. They invaded Britain during the time of Roman occupation. Similarly the Angles came from the area of northern Germany and Denmark. The Jutes and Frisians were other tribes of Germanic people. The Jutes also invaded England but over time were either driven out of the country or merged with the Saxons and Angles. This is how the Romans saw Britain and Ireland in A.D. 150.
