Canterbury (i/ˈkæntərbri/, /-bəri/, or /-bɛri/) is a historic English cathedral city and UNESCO World Heritage Site, which lies at the heart of the City of Canterbury, a local government district of Kent in the United Kingdom. It lies on the River Stour.
The Archbishop of Canterbury is the primate of the Church of England and the worldwide Anglican Communion owing to the importance of St Augustine, who served as the apostle to the pagan Kingdom of Kent around the turn of the 7th century. The city's cathedral became a major focus of pilgrimage following the 1170 martyrdom of Thomas Becket. A journey of pilgrims to his shrine served as the frame for Geoffrey Chaucer's 14th-century classic The Canterbury Tales.
Canterbury is a popular tourist destination: consistently one of the most-visited cities in the United Kingdom, the city's economy is heavily reliant upon tourism. The city has been occupied since Paleolithic times and served as the capital of the Celtic Cantiaci and Jute Kingdom of Kent. Many historical structures fill the area, including a city wall founded in Roman times and rebuilt in the 14th century, the ruins of St Augustine's Abbey and a Norman castle, and the oldest extant school in the world, The King's School. Modern additions include the Marlowe Theatre and the St Lawrence Ground, home of the Kent County Cricket Club. There is also a substantial student population, brought about by the presence of the University of Kent, Canterbury Christ Church University, the University for the Creative Arts, and the Girne American University Canterbury campus. Canterbury remains, however, a relatively small city in terms of geographical size, when compared with other British cities.

Plot: Born into a modest family of Breton country gentlemen, Bertrand du Gusclin gets noticed as of his tender years on account of his unusual energy.

The women of France decide to work to pay his ransom. After being released, Du Guesclin goes to Spain, where he defeats the troops of the King of Navarre. Appointed Constable of France, he wages war unceasingly to rid France of the English occupiers. He dies one evening following his last victory outside Châteauneuf-de-Randon.

canterbury video
Six people out in the forest never seemed like anything would go wrong
And that’s what we said. This is a one-time thing and not what we do every day, all day.
Tell me what you want me to be.
Please tell me I’m a friend for real.
Well, things are creeping up and it’s information
That I don’t really want to find out.
We are away in a dream fetching food for all.
Fearing to face what we know is upon us all.
Just empty hands on the bars of a rusty bike.
Fear in the face as our powerful minds think alike.
Six friends all out in the open, don’t you do it if you think something would go wrong.
That’s what the man said. Don’t be afraid of flames at all,
When fire’s burning, it can still burn your hands.
If it’s life at its very best
For it just to question everything you hold close to your chest.
It’s creeping up and it’s information
That I don’t really want to find out.
Oh, I think I’m about to trip and fall,
Think I’m about to lose it all.
Exposing reflections or greater aspects/expansions [?]
We should look in the mirror,
But not at the same time.
Time, it doesn’t exist at all,
I think I either lost it all
Or never found it all.
We are away in a dream fetching food for all.
Fearing to face what we know is upon us all.
Just empty hands on the bars of a rusty bike.
Fear in the face as our powerful minds think alike.
Oh, I think I’m about to trip and fall,
Think I’m about to lose it all.
Exposing reflections or greater aspects as if
We should look in the mirror
But not at the same time.
Time, it doesn’t exist at all,
I think I either lost it all
Or never found it all.
