From around 260 AD, Britain began experiencing serious raids from Germanic peoples — Saxons and Franks — along the eastern and southern coasts. The Roman response was the "Saxon Shore" (Litus Saxonicum) — a chain of massive forts from the Wash to Portsmouth. Carausius, the admiral appointed to suppress the pirates, was so successful (or so suspected of collusion with the raiders) that he was ordered arrested — and promptly declared himself Emperor of Britain.
