The Jutes initially hailed from the Cimbric peninsula (modern-day Denmark)  before migrating  to Britain and settling during the mid-5th century AD. Of the Jutes, there were three main groups, the Wihtwara ('people of the spirit'), the Meonwara ('people of the Meon Valley'), and the Cantwara ('the people of Cant'- old english for Kent). They were one of the three most prominent and powerful Germanic tribes, alongside the Saxons and Angles, but are often overshadowed by the latter despite their historical significance.

Much like the travelling Jutes, the germanic people known as "Saxons" hailed from further afield, Old-Saxony which is now known as northern Germany and Denmark. The Saxons migrated to Britain around the 4th and 5th centuries, only finally being "defeated" as it were, when the Normans invaded in 1066AD.

Perhaps the most popular of all, the Vikings were seafaring raiders and traders originally from Scandinavia. From the 8th to late 11th century they explored and settled across Europe, some even reaching the Americas. It is important to note that Viking was more of a job description than an ethnicity, many "vikings" were really just farmers.
