Back to A Long and Illustrious History
The Romans in Britain (43-410 AD)
Study note
The Romans invaded and ruled most of Britain for about 400 years, from AD 43 until around AD 410. Emperor Hadrian built a wall in the north to keep out the Picts (ancestors of the Scots). The Romans built roads and towns before they left to defend other parts of their empire.
Memory tip: Romans 43-410 AD; Hadrian's Wall kept out the Picts in the north.
