East Anglia is a second-level region in the UK, which makes up one of three parts of the East of England (the first-level region). Its name comes from a Germanic tribe called the 'Angles', who settled in the area during the post-Roman period.
The region is made up of the counties of Suffolk, Norfolk and Cambridgeshire, as well as Peterborough's unitary authority, and covers an area of 12,561 square kilometres. Towns such as Huntingdon, March and Brampton make up just a small number of popular locations for businesses and visitors alike.
