Cevap

The Romans left Britain in AD 410 to defend other parts of their empire, which allowed tribes from north-western Europe—the Jutes, Angles, and Saxons—to invade and settle.
The correct answer accurately identifies AD 410 as the year the Roman army left Britain to defend the rest of their empire. It also correctly names the Jutes, Angles, and Saxons as the tribes from north-western Europe that filled the resulting power vacuum.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the date and strategic reason for the end of the Roman military presence.
The Roman army departed in AD 410 because they were needed to defend the central parts of the Roman Empire from threats elsewhere.
The withdrawal was a strategic military decision rather than a defeat by the local British tribes.
2
Identify the specific groups that moved into Britain following the vacuum left by the Romans.
Tribes from north-western Europe, namely the Jutes, Angles, and Saxons, began to settle on the island.
These groups are collectively known as the Anglo-Saxons and their arrival marks the transition from Roman Britain to the early medieval period.
3
Verify the chronological placement of other historical groups to rule out incorrect options.
The Vikings (8th century), Bronze Age tribes (pre-Iron Age), and Normans (11th century) do not belong in the 5th-century timeline.
