Kingdom: England

Comments: Hereford is a shire in western England, hard by Wales. In Celtic times home of the Silures, it was incorporated into the Roman world in the 1st century A.D. Not successfully overrun by the Anglo-Saxon Babarians until the mid-7th century, when the province was incorporated into the Kingdom of Mercia, passing to Wessex in the 10th century. For some time a County Palantine, Herefordshire lost its autonomy under William the Conqueror, who incorporated into the shire some portions of Wales. Ecclesiastical authority is vested in the Archbishop of Canterbury . Aside from some industry in the larger towns, the province is primarily agricultural, producing a variety of grains and some cattle.
