What's the difference between Saxons and Norse. I thought Saxons just is one of the Norse peoples. ie, roughly devided up between Norway, Saxons, (Denmark) Birka, (Sweden).

The Saxons were not a Nordic people at all, but hail from nothern Germany. Some of them participated in the invasions of Britain (whence "Anglo-Saxon"), others stayed on the continent. They've given their name to no less than three German Länder (roughly comparable to US states) - Sachsen, Sachsen-Anhalt, and Niedersachsen - , as well as various bits of southern England - Essex, Middlesex, Sussex, and Wessex.
