History of England. Anglo-Saxon England or Early Medieval England, existing from the 5th to the 11th centuries from soon after the end of Roman Britain until the Norman Conquest in 1066, consisted of various Anglo-Saxon kingdoms until 927, when it was united as the Kingdom of England by King Æthelstan (r. 927–939).
In this article, we will examine the real Æthelred, showing that while he had both successes and failures, he was a crucial figure in the unification of England. We will also analyse his relationships with his 'more impressive' father-in-law, Alfred and Alfred's son, Edward the Elder.
