	Kingdom of Kent - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Kingdom of Kent was a kingdom of Jutes in southeast England, one of the seven traditional kingdoms of the so-called Anglo-Saxon heptarchy.
		Kent was the first kingdom in England to be established by the Germanic invaders, and its early emergence allowed it to become relatively powerful in the early Anglo-Saxon period.
		Kent seems to have had its greatest power under Æthelbert at the beginning of the 7th century: Ethelbert was recognized as Bretwalda until his death in 616, and was the first Anglo-Saxon king to accept Christianity, as well as the first to introduce a written code of laws.

	Duke of Kent - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		After 825, the Kingdom of Kent became a dependency of Wessex and was ruled by sub-kings, usually related to the Wessex rulers.
		On 23 April 1799, the dukedom of Kent was, as a joint title with the dukedom of Strathearn and the earldom of Dublin, given to King George III's fourth son, Prince Edward Augustus.
		The next creation of a title of Kent, was not that of Duke or Marquess, but rather that of Earl, with the creation of Prince Alfred (1844-1900), the second son of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, as Duke of Edinburgh, Earl of Ulster, and of Kent in 1866.
