Before There Was An England: The History of Wessex in the 9th Century

In this one I take a look at the fortunes of the Kingdom of Wessex before the time of Alfred the Great and the Great Heathen Army of 865. First of all I'll take a look at King Ecgberht (802-839) who shattered the Mercian Supremacy at the Battle of Ellandun in 825 and cemented West-Saxon control over all the Anglo-Saxon lands south of the Thames. Following this I'll also delve into the reign of his son King Æthelwulf (839-858) and his response to the Viking incursions as well as what information can be gleaned about the nature of the West-Saxon Kingdom and its relationship with Mercia during the time.
