Angles
Angles (German: Angeln, Old English: Englas, Latin: Angli) were one of the Germanic peoples who migrated from continental Germany to Britain. That land was later called Engla-lond(In Old English - "Land of the Angles"), thus England. Thanks to the major influence of the Angles, the people of England are also known as Anglo-Saxons, and, of course English. and regions of the United Kingdom are known by names such as East Anglia.A part of the Jutland Peninsula where the Angles originated is still called Angeln today. It is in the Federal Rebublic of Germany, Bundesland Schleswig-Holstein.
Angles[?] is also the name of a commune in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence département, in France
