'''Norfolk''' (pronounced ''NOR-f'k'') is a low-lying [[Counties of England|county]] in [[East Anglia]] in the east of southern [[England]]. It has borders with [[Lincolnshire]] to the west, [[Cambridgeshire]] to the west and southwest and with [[Suffolk]] to the south. Its northern and eastern boundaries are the [[North Sea]] coast, including [[The Wash]]. The [[Angles]], for whom [[East Anglia]] and [[England]] itself are named, settled in this area in the [[5th century]] and later became the "north folk" and the "south folk", hence, "Norfolk" and "Suffolk". As with all English counties, a rich [[history of Norfolk|history]] exists
 
The regional capital of Norfolk is the city of [[Norwich]]. Other large towns include [[King's Lynn]] and [[Great Yarmouth]].
