Comments: Norfolk is a shire in eastern England, fronting on the North Sea. The ancient home of the Iceni, who offered the fiercest resistance to the Roman conquest, during late Roman times the province formed part of the Litus Saxonicum. Overrun by the northern band of the Angles in the fifth century, Norfolk (i.e., 'North Folk'), became part of the Kingdom of East Anglia. Incorporated into Mercia under Egbert, in the early 9th century, Norfolk formed part of the Danelaw later in the century, comprising part of Guthrum's Kingdom until incorporated into Wessex (i.e., England) in the following century. Norfolk is part of the Archiepiscopal province of Canterbury , and there is a local Bishop in Norwich . The province is quite prosperous, with some industry in the principal towns, a good deal of fishing and shipping in the ports, and much shepherding.
