A little known bit of history is the exodus of a large number of Englishmen (Well, Anglosaxons) to the Roman Empire. Part of this tale is the capture and sacking of Ceuta, as well as the conquest of Majorca and Minorca.

Later in the account they go on to New England in the Black Sea, but I'm curious. What if the English stayed in all three of these locations - and invited in the Romans as lords/protectors? What would a Medieval Mediterranean with seafaring Anglosaxon Romans look like?

EDIT : Amusingly, since this seems to be around 1075 - We could legit see a timeline with English Earls of the Balearics, and El Cid in Valencia. Hehehhee
