What parts of Anglo-Saxon culture actually survived the conquest? Or are the English just offspring of some shitty Latins?
>>
The English really aren't Anglo-Saxon. Only 1/3rd of the the English genome is actually Anglo-Saxon.

The English have a significant amount of Celtic and French ancestry. Most of the English language (about 58%) as you can see (picture related) comes from Latin and French (a Latin-Romance) language.

Why would anyone wanna be Anglo-Saxon in the first place? Anglo-Saxons were subhuman Germanic barbarians.

Remind me why are French and Spanish seen as Latin despite their germanic origin while English and Dutch are Germanic?
>>
>>1521159
That graph is a little misleading since it includes obscure medical and legal terms. In terms of words we actually use it would be a more even split between Old French and Old English.

Because of the Futhark runes common to german and English versus the Latin Alphabet of the Romans.

>>1521177
French and Spanish are descended from Latin
>>
>>1521177

they don't have a germanic origin, especially not spanish people
>>
>>1521159

they don't have any french, celtic, anglo-saxon, norman, danish, viking or roman ancestry. It's a huge myth that everyone is a "mix", most nationalities are isolated, homogenous genepools
