Burgundy (French : Bourgogne; German: Burgund) is a region historically situated in modern-day France and Switzerland, originally inhabited in turn by Celts (Gauls), Romans (Gallo-Romans), and in the 4th century assigned by Romans to the Germanic people of the Burgundians, who settled there in their own kingdom. This Burgundian kingdom was conquered in the 6th century by Franks who continued this kingdom under their own rule.
You even have a map on that page :

Angle is a tribe, Saxon is another tribe
Anglo saxon are the British people, the name coming from the fact that the two tribes lived in Britain and mixed up

Edit : sorry, plenty of people invaded Europe but the Burgundians are not on that list. You might be thinking of another people.
