Fall Asleep to the ENTIRE History of The Saxons

The Saxons were a powerful Germanic people who emerged along the North Sea coast of what is now Germany and the Netherlands before playing a central role in shaping early medieval Europe. Known for their seafaring and raiding, they became infamous to their neighbors and eventually expanded into Britain during the 5th and 6th centuries, where they formed part of the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms that laid the foundation of England. On the continent, the Saxons resisted incorporation into the Frankish Empire until Charlemagne’s brutal campaigns in the late 8th and early 9th centuries forced their conversion to Christianity and integration into his realm. Despite this, their culture, warrior traditions, and influence endured, leaving a legacy that lived on both in Anglo-Saxon England and in the history of northern Europe. In this episode, we explore the origins, conquests, and legacy of the Saxons—a people whose defiance and expansion helped reshape the post-Roman world. #history #ancienthistory #historydocumentary #historyforsleep
