Kent

Description

Kent er et amtsområde i det sydøstlige England og et af hjemlandene. Det grænser op til Greater London mod nordvest, Surrey mod vest og East Sussex mod sydvest. Amtet deler også grænser med Essex langs udmundingen af floden Themsen, og med det franske departement Pas-de-Calais gennem Kanaltunnelen. Amtsbyen er Maidstone.

Kent var et af de første britiske territorier, der blev beboet af germanske stammer, især juterne, efter romernes tilbagetrækning. Canterbury Katedral i Kent, den ældste katedral i England, har været sæde for ærkebiskopperne af Canterbury siden Englands omvendelse til kristendommen, som begyndte i det 6. århundrede med Sankt Augustin. Rochester Katedral i Medway er Englands næstældste katedral. Beliggende mellem London og Doverstrædet, som adskiller England fra det europæiske fastland, har Kent været rammen om både konflikter og diplomati, herunder Slaget om England i Anden Verdenskrig og Leeds Castle fredsforhandlingerne i 1978 og 2004.
