East Anglia is a region in eastern England which takes its name from a 7th-10th century Anglian kingdom. The region has no fixed definition, but is generally agreed to consist of at least the counties Cambridgeshire, Norfolk and Suffolk, which have a combined population of around 2 million. The region lies south-east of the Midlands and north-east of the Home Counties. East Anglia is the easternmost part of Great Britain and is characterised by a flat landscape and an extensive North Sea coastline.

The areas should not be confused with the larger East of England, a statistical region of England of which East Anglia forms a part.
