The story of Cnut the Great (995–1035), also known as King Canute and the tide is an apocryphal anecdote in which Canute demonstrates to his flattering courtiers that he has no control over the elements (the incoming tide), explaining that secular power is vain compared to the supreme power of God. The episode is frequently alluded to in contexts where the futility of 'trying to stop the tide' of an inexorable event is pointed out, but usually misrepresenting Canute as believing he had supernatural powers, when it was the opposite.

Edmund Ironside (990 – 1016), also known as Edmund II, was King of England from 23 April to 30 November 1016. He was the son of King Æthelred the Unready and his reign was marred by a war he had inherited from his father. Edmund battled the Danes and their English supporters constantly until the decisive Battle of Assandun on 18 October 1016, when King Cnut decisively defeated Edmund, after which the two kings met on the island of Alney in the River Severn and negotiated a peace dividing the country between them. Edmund received Wessex while Cnut took Mercia and probably Northumbria.
