Æthelberht (also Æthelbert, Aethelberht, Aethelbert, or Ethelbert)^{[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Pronunciation">needs IPA]} (c. 560 – 24 February 616) was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kings_of_Kent">King of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Kent">Kent from about 589 until his death. The eighth-century monk https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bede">Bede, in his https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecclesiastical_History_of_the_English_People">Ecclesiastical History of the English People, lists him as the third king to hold imperium over other https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Saxon_kingdoms">Anglo-Saxon kingdoms. In the late ninth century https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglo-Saxon_Chronicle">Anglo-Saxon Chronicle he is referred to as a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bretwalda">bretwalda, or "Britain-ruler". He was the first English king to convert to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity">Christianity.

Æthelberht was the son of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eormenric_of_Kent">Eormenric, succeeding him as king, according to the Chronicle. He married https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertha_of_Kent">Bertha, the Christian daughter of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charibert">Charibert, king of the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franks">Franks, thus building an alliance with the most powerful state in contemporary Western Europe; the marriage probably took place before he came to the throne. Bertha's influence may have led to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_Gregory_I">Pope Gregory I's decision to send https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augustine_of_Canterbury">Augustine as a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missionary">missionary from Rome. Augustine landed on the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isle_of_Thanet">Isle of Thanet in east Kent in 597. Shortly thereafter, Æthelberht converted to Christianity, churches were established, and wider-scale conversion to Christianity began in the kingdom. He provided the new church with land in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canterbury">Canterbury, thus establishing one of the foundation stones of what ultimately became the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglican_Communion">Anglican Communion.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%86thelberht%27s_law">Æthelberht's law for Kent, the earliest written code in any https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germanic_language">Germanic language, instituted a complex system of fines; the law code is preserved in the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Textus_Roffensis">Textus Roffensis. Kent was rich, with strong trade ties to the continent, and he may have instituted royal control over trade. Coinage probably began circulating in Kent during his reign for the first time since the Anglo-Saxon invasion. He later came to be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canonization">regarded as a saint for his role in establishing Christianity among the Anglo-Saxons. His https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feast_day">feast day was originally 24 February, but was changed to 25 February.
