Most of Europe was Germania (Germany is a modern country). But England was Roman.
Christianity would seem to be more of a roman invention. In no Roman text does it mention Jesus.
Christianity in England was to put the religion under state hands. By this the king/queen was stated to be a direct descendent of Jesus.
Until then pagan religions in the UK had the power.
But pagan traditions have not died. Such as May day where children dance around a may pole. This is a fertility dance.
Old Christian churches in the UK have pagan symbols.
