		Around the year 650, Penda attacked East Anglia and drove out its king, Anna; when Anna attempted to reclaim his kingdom in 653 or 654, Penda invaded again and killed him in battle.

		Felix (meaning happy or joyful) came to East Anglia from Burgundian territory (probably from one of the monastic houses founded by the Irish missionary, St. Columnbanus) in the company of Sigbert (Sigeberht) the Learned, whom he had converted to Christianity (while Felix was still in seminary).
		Honorius sent Felix on to East Anglia, which had switched between Christianity and paganism several times since the East Anglian king Raedwald became a Christian at the Kentish court in the first decade or so of the seventh century.
		Bede records the success of Felix’s work in East Anglia, known for his great piety and hard work, as both a missionary and educator, Felix, in Bede’s words "delivered" East Anglia from long-standing unrighteousness and unhappiness.

		Although in the context of a royal burial the 37 coins may not be an indication of great wealth, each coin seems to have been selected from a different mint, suggesting a royal treasury, as well as trade with Gaul, probably in the form of slaves.
		Apparently the rulers of East Anglia had some sort of commercial connection with the successors of the Roman Empire in the West.
		The rulers of East Anglia in the 7th century were undoubtedly warrior kings, but as we see from the finds at Sutton Hoo, they exhibited a desire to add credence to their royal claims through something other than military might.

	Penda of Mercia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		A pagan at a time when Christianity was taking hold in many of the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms, Penda participated in the defeat of the powerful Northumbrian king Edwin at the battle of Hatfield Chase in 633; nine years later, he defeated and killed Edwin's eventual successor, Oswald, at the battle of Maserfield.
		The possibility that his killing was the result of pressure from Oswald—Eadfrith being a dynastic rival of Oswald—has been suggested; since the potential existed for Eadfrith to be put to use in Mercia's favor in Northumbrian power struggles while he was alive, it may not have been to Penda's advantage to have him killed.
		In 654, the East Anglian king Anna, who had harbored the exiled Cenwealh, was killed by Penda.

	A History of Mercia
		Finally, many scholars have commented on the division of East Anglia into Norfolk and Suffolk (the "north folk" and "south folk") and have assumed that it must have meant that it was settled by two different groups, or a single group ruled separately by different rulers.
		It is most likely that settlement came in part from many areas; Lindsey and East Anglia in the east being the biggest contributors, the Saxons to the South also migrating to a lesser degree, and Bernicia and Deria in the northeast providing a small number of immigrants to the Midlands.
		It could also be that he had an early empire stretching from the borders of East Anglia, Essex, and Sussex in the east all the way to the Welsh border with the Thames as a southern border and the southern borders of Elmet as the northern.

		About this time [A.D. 635], after the death of Earpwald, successor to Redwald, the kingdom of the East Angles was ruled by his brother Sigbert, a good and religious man who had been baptized long previously in Gaul while he had been living in exile to escape the hostility of Redwald.
		When he returned home and became king, he wished to copy what he had seen well contrived in Gaul, and he was quick to found a school for the education of boys in the study of letters [this school was probably at Dunwich].
		When he refused, they dragged him out of the monastery regardless of his protests, and took him into battle with them in the hope that their men would be less likely to panic or think of flight if they were under the eye of one who had once been a gallant and distinguished commander.

		Edwin, informed of his friend's perplexity, was yet determined, at all hazards, to remain in East Anglia; and thought that, if the protection of that court failed him, it were better to die than prolong a life so much exposed to the persecutions of his powerful rival.
		The East Angles conspired against Redwald, their king; and, having put him to death, they offered their crown to Edwin, of whose valour and capacity they had had experience while he resided among them.

		He defeated the East Angles, drove the king of Wessex into exile for three years, and continued to wage war against the Bernicians of Northumbria.
		On the other hand, an interpretation is also possible whereby the marriage and conversion could be seen as corresponding to a successful attempt on Oswiu's part to expand Bernician influence at Penda's expense; Higham saw Peada's conversion more in terms of political manoeuvring on both sides than religious zeal.
