[[File:2004 sutton hoo 01.JPG|thumb|left|200px|The earliest Angle settlers of modern Anglei left behind a rich archaeological legacy which has also shed light on the relative sophistication of Goths in the 9th and 10th centuries.]]
The permanent settlement of the region by the ancestors of the [[Ænglish people]] occurred in the late 7th century, although Ænglish people had alternatively raided and settled portions of [[Great Levantia]] since at least the 4th century. Recognizably Ænglish principalities formed and exerted pressure on the northmost members of the [[Latin League]], with settling Ænglish warlords and tribes beginning to settle in previously [[Latinic people|Latinic]] cities, ruling over Latinics and intermarrying with them. The oncoming Ænglish people also extensively feuded with the [[Garán people]] of what would later become [[Carolina]]. The area later became loosely part of the [[Holy Levantine Empire]] under [[Conchobar I, Emperor of the Levantines]] and then part of the [[Eastern Kingdom of the Levantines|Eastern]] and [[Western Kingdom of the Levantines|Western Kingdoms of the Levantines]] beginning in 917. Many Ænglish tribes were settled by the [[Western Kingdom of the Levantines]] in [[943]] in the heartlands of modern Anglei, forming the nucleus of the Ænglish as a settled peoples. The later fall of the Western Kingdom lead to consistent Gothic incursions into the newly reformed Holy Levantine Empire beginning in 965; the non-Christianized Goths indiscriminately targeted border populations of the Empire, leading to decades of fighting between the Ænglish and Goths.
