Oxbridge rivalry

The University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge, collectively known as Oxbridge, are the two oldest and most famous universities in England. Both were founded more than 750 years ago, and between them have produced a large number of Britain's most prominent scientists and politicians, as well as noted figures in many other fields. The competition between Oxford and Cambridge also has a long history, dating back to the days when Cambridge was founded by dissident scholars from Oxford.
