@angels77100 I'm sure Henry V would not describe himself as a celt. Neither would Alfred The Great.Elizabeth 1 described herself as English and her grandfather did also. Richard the Lionheart also described himself as the king of England and when William the Conk invaded he was claiming the English throne. I think you really do need to do a little more reading and a little less dope smoking.
@dpsherry I beg to differ sir. You are talking about Celtic history (Britain). Most everything you mentioned previously is Celtic Britain. Sorry but you are strengthening my argument about there being no such thing as English history up until the 19th century.
@angels77100 There was no Irish nation until 1920 when Ireland became independent. Ireland itself was subject to many migrations, e.g. vikings, and others. Scotland was also populated by Irish and subsequently Ireland was populated by Scots; then there wast the armada. Irish migration to England didn't occur until the industrial revolution - which was wn the US was created.Henry VIII called himself English. Henry V called himself English.
England on the other hand, was "english" as early as 1
@dpsherry Sir, I am talking real history going back thousands of years. The Irish didn't need an English invasion to wield the axe in anger against an enemy. Do you know why? Because there was no such thing as English. The Irish were fighting themselves long before there ever was an England. Same goes for Scotland and Wales. England is just a young nation like the USA.
@angels77100 Bollocks. I'll have you know that the English have been around for a very long time, mate. Not a couple of hundred years. We were in Baghdad when you were in your dad's bags. I don't mean the British Isles, I mean the English. We along with the Welsh had an identity before even the french had one - read your history. And yeah, 80% of English (and British) people today still have the DNA of the original Britons - from the Basque region. Now you read your history.
@JaleelJohanson62 Its OK there my friend, Dont worry about it. I wont judge a Country just from 1 idiot. You come across them from time to time. regardless of Nationality lol.
@HL5IHarrier I apologize on behalf of America for idiots like angels77100..... We seem to have had a recent bumper crop of morons here in the states. LOL
@angels77100 Ultiamtely, Yes the English has a very rich History. And we are not a young Nation like the USA as you put it. By the looks of you posts it seems you a reffering to the DNA History of the People of the British Isles, (Which you have no clue about) and in no way pointing out the English History. Either that or you are choosing to deny the fact of English History events. You angels77100, have Failed ..
@angels77100 First off im not old im 19. Second - no, My Parents are English, just like my GrandParents. They were English. And so was there Parents so on so forth. Are you reffering to English DNA genetic History or actual English history events? For example - England was Unified as a single-Governed counrty in 927 AD, The Roman Invasion, Boudica, French Invasion 1066, Agincourt, The Crusades, The Spanish Armada.. All English History.
