Brigantia is now Yorkshire (/ˈjɔːrkʃər, -ʃɪər/ YORK-shər, -sheer), a historic county in Northern England and the largest in the United Kingdom. Because of its size in comparison with other English counties, it has been the scene of conflict and division within itself, particularly in Roman times, when this book is set. Throughout these changes, Yorkshire has continued to be recognised as a geographic territory and culturally unique entity. Carvetii is now Cumbria (/ˈkʌmbriə/ KUM-bree-ə), and is deemed a ceremonial county, an area that has an appointed Lord Lieutenant and High Sheriff and is used for ceremonial purposes in relation to the monarchy. It is in Northwest England, bordering the Scottish council areas of Dumfries and Galloway and the Scottish Borders to the north, Northumberland and County Durham to the east, North Yorkshire to the south-east, Lancashire to the south, and the Irish Sea to the west. Its largest settlement is the city of Carlisle. The Carvetii (Common Brittonic: *Carwetī) were a Brittonic Celtic tribe living in what is nowCumbria, in North-West England during the Iron Age, and were subsequently identified as a civitas (politically independent community) by the Romans and during the Iron Age, and were subsequently identified as a civitas (canton) of Roman Britain.
