In 43 CE, Roman legionaries set foot on British soil. It wasn’t the first attempt – the Romans had tried twice before to take the island – but this time, the invasion was going to work. The legions battled their way through modern-day England, taking out the tribes who wouldn’t willingly submit to Roman rule. As the soldiers made their way further north, the native Celts fought for their lives and their homeland, but the enemy was too strong. The Romans were here to stay.
