East Anglia is a peninsula of eastern
England. It was named after one of the ancient
Anglo-Saxon kingdoms, which was named after the homeland of the Angles,
Angeln in northern
Germany. The kingdom consisted of
Norfolk and
Suffolk, names which possibly arose during or after the Danish settling ("North folk [people]" and "South folk [people]"); the region's boundaries, however, are vague.
