Norfolk, Ceremonial county in East Anglia, England.

Norfolk encompasses 2,074 square miles of land between Lincolnshire, Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, and the North Sea, featuring extensive coastlines and wetlands.

The region served as the center of the Iceni tribe territory, where Queen Boudica initiated a major uprising against Roman rule in 60 CE.

Norfolk maintains more medieval churches than any other English county, reflecting its past wealth from the medieval wool trade and religious significance.

The county operates seven administrative districts, including the city of Norwich, which functions as the primary commercial and transportation center.

The Norfolk Broads form England's largest protected wetland, created by medieval peat excavations that later flooded due to rising sea levels.
