There are too many parallels with this guy to ignore. The King Arthur legend is an embellished fragmented version of his story before the collapse of the Western Roman Empire.

Rather like how the Iliad was an embellished fragmented version of the invasion of Troy before the bronze age collapse and the romance of three kingdoms is an embellished account of the fall of Han.

Probably

Yes and He was a white and based Roman

>He was a white

As opposed to what? A Germanic? His whole story is based around the Romano-Celtic British fighting the Germanics.

>>2419959
the only true whites are romans and greeks

>the only true whites are romans and greeks

Yes, and the Celts. My point is that he was obviously white, because his story is based around defending white civilisation from Germanics.

He and other characters from Arthurian tales are based on real people. urien is based on urien of rhegard for example

>there is an alternate universe where Urien of Rheged avoided assassination, crushed the Anglo-Saxons at Lindisfarne and then retook the rest of the island, restoring Britannia to its former glory

Why the King Arthur of that pic has the castle of Castile in his clothes?
>>
>>2424540
Because plebs don't know shit about heraldry
>>
>>2419858
He's based off Arthurius, the last Roman-Briton, I believe.
>>
>>2419858

Same category as Robin Hood.

The life depicted is too vast and expansive to be one person, most likely a composite of people from the various Briton kingdoms. Legend is so addled with magical nonsense that whatever is real bears just about no resemblance to what we think of it.

So no, basically fiction.
