    History:
    According to MacKenzie, Beli "had a violent contest with his brother, Bran, resulting in a divided kingdom. Beli had South Britain, and Bran had north of the Humber. This lasted five years when Beli obtained entire control. Bran next brought troops from Gaul, but on eve of battle their mother reconciled them. Next year the two brothers invaded Gaul, defeated all enemies en route to Rome and were bought off by the Romans with money tribute and twenty-four hostages. The Romans, helping the Germans against them, they returned to Rome, took the city and Bran remained there as Emperor. Beli returned to Britain, built the gate in London called Belinsgate, created a high tower over it on which , in a gold vessel, his ashes were put when he died."
