The First Anglo-Saxon Overlord of Britain | Ælle of Sussex

In the shadowed dawn of Anglo-Saxon England, when kingdoms were carved by sword and shield, one name rose above the clash of iron and the roar of the sea — Ælle. Ælle, the first King of Sussex and lord of the South Saxons, began his reign in the year 477, ruling until 514. In an age when Britain trembled between the fading light of Rome and the rising storm of the Saxons, he stood as a conqueror, a war-leader, and a founder of realms. Centuries later, the great 8th-century chronicler Bede would remember him not merely as a king, but as a ruler of imperium — a man who held overlordship over other Anglo-Saxon kingdoms. In the late 9th century, the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle would go further still, naming him the first Bretwalda — the “Ruler of Britain” — a title reserved for those whose power stretched beyond borders and whose will shaped the fate of the land. Bede lists seven kings who bore such supremacy. Ælle stands first among them. He was no Christian monarch guided by the cross. He was a king of the old gods — a lord of warriors, forged in battle, ruling in a time when destiny was written in blood and steel. This is the story of Ælle — the first Bretwalda, the founding king of Sussex, and one of the earliest giants of England’s dark and legendary age. 00:00 Introduction 01:45 Ælle in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle 07:00 Legacy Music by Alexander Nakarada - CreatorChords Track: Celtic Music → "Grundar" by Alexander Nakarada (Royalty Free) Link:    • Celtic Music → "Grundar" by Alexander Naka...   #historyprofiles #Ælle #sussex #anglosaxon #anglosaxonhistory #anglosaxons #englishhistory #englishheritage #britishhistory #britishheritage #warrior #warriorspirit #warriors #viralhistory #trendinghistory #bretwalda #fypage #fypviral #fypyoutube #fypシ
