Before the introduction of Christianity, the area that became the province of Brandenburg was occupied by a number of Slavic tribes. By 983, the Slavic people in general were brought under German control. In the 1100s they became part of Brandenburg. Although the area was conquered by the Germans, the Slavic influence on both the culture and history of Brandenburg is noticeable even today. The major Slavic tribes were: Burgunders, Heveller, Langobarden, Lechen, Lutizen, Semones, Sorben, Wends, and Wilzen.
