In 55 and 54 BC, Julius Caesar landed in the south of the island of Britain. This was the first contact between Rome and the various Briton kingdoms. Several kings allied with Caesar either to survive or to benefit from Rome’s protection against the hostility of other Briton tribes: they were the first client kingdoms. This system would develop throughout the following century, so that by the time of Claudius’ invasion in AD 43, many of these client kingdoms were already well established.
Data sheet
In 55 and 54 B.C., Julius Caesar landed in the south of the island of Britain. This was the first contact between Rome and the various British kingdoms. Several kings joined Caesar to survive or to benefit from Rome's protection against the hostility of other Briton tribes: these were the first client kingdoms. This system would develop over the next century, so that by the Roman invasion of Claudius in 43 A.D., many of these client kingdoms were already well established.
Among them were the Regnenses, Brigantes, and Iceni, who fought mercilessly for power. With the support of Rome, they all tried to claim the title of king of the Britons, in Latin REX BRITANNORUM.
