The highest peak in this region, and also in England, is Scafell Pike, which reaches an elevation of 3,210 feet. The Cumbrian Mountains to the northwest include the famous In contrast to the rugged terrain of the north, the central and eastern regions of England are characterized by relatively flat and low-lying areas. The East Anglian region is particularly known for its expansive fenlands and broads, where rivers and lakes have formed in a unique landscape that hosts a diverse range of flora and fauna.

The surprising run to the 2018 semi-finals in Russia was followed by manager Gareth Southgate leading England to a first European Championship final two years ago.
