The Anglo Saxon was in Germany"Anglo Saxon" refers specifically to two tribes who lived in what is now Germany and Denmark as well from ancient times until the end of the Roman Empire. The Angles came from a place called Angeln which is on the border between Germany and Denmark in the part of Germany that is now called Schleswig-Holstein. The Saxons came from Saxony (also called Sachsen) which is the area of northern Germany around the city of Hamburg. Sometimes people consider the Jutes to be "Anglo-Saxon" as well. The Jutes are from Jutland which is now in Denmark. The Angles and the Saxons were never in the Roman Empire, they lived outside it, and they used to make their money by being paid to be mercenary soldiers for the Romans and also the governments of parts of the former Roman Empire. In 410AD the Romans left Britain and there were many problems. In 449AD the British Government of the time invited some of the Anglo-Saxons to come to Britain to help them fight the Scots and the Irish who kept invading. The Anglo-Saxons period starts from 449AD. In about 480AD the Angles and the Saxons decided they were not going to do what the British government wanted so they revolted and told their friends to come to Britain to steal things and make it their own land. When they invaded Britain there was already people here - Welsh speaking people - who they killed or forced to leave their homes. Some Welsh people who stayed were made into slaves. Eventually the Anglo-Saxons conquered all of what is now called England, but it was divided into at least seven English speaking kingdoms for a long time. These Anglo-Saxon kingdoms are known as the Heptarchy and were Wessex, Essex, Sussex, East Anglia, Kent, Mercia and Northumbria. The period in English History usually considered the Anglo-Saxon Period started from the beginning of the Anglo-Saxon invasion (449AD) and continues until 1066AD which is when the Norman Conquest occurred and England was invaded and conquered by the Normans.

They never left, they might have been pushed west a bit when the Vikings started invading, and they may have lost influence and power, but they never actually left. Modern Britain is made up of a mixture of people of Anglo-Saxon, Jute, Scandinavian and Danish and Roman origin, amongst many others, and people came from these countries to colonise the British Isles. The only invaders to actually come to Britain and then leave were the Romans, who left in 410AD because Rome itself was being attacked by Germanic tribes and the soldiers were needed for her defence. Britain was also being increasingly invaded by Germanic tribes, but was told by Rome to "Look to your own defences", ie, you are on your own!
The Romans left roads because they wanted the roads so that they can get to other places of Britain easier and quicker.
