Encarta Answers  | Saxony (historical region): Historical region in north-west Europe, which in ancient times was inhabited by the Germanic Saxons. The Saxons first appear in history (mentioned by Ptolemy) in the 2nd century AD. In 772 Charlemagne invaded their land, imposing Christianity on them. His descendants created the powerful duchy of Saxony during the 9th century. After German unification in 1990, the states of Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt were created. Modern Saxony occupies basically the same area as the former kingdom. |
