York is a city in England (and the fief of the same name during the Dark Ages).
History[]
Founded as the Roman city of Eboracum around the turn of the millennium, York has featured prominently in the history of British Isles. Situated on a peninsula between the River Ouse and River Foss, the city is a major port and trading hub, with close ties to London and the Continent. York is surrounded by high banks and timber, all of which is periodically interrupted by large stone gates that were carved into the earth by the Normans when they seized the city in 1067[1].
