why do anglos have such a hard time recognizing that they're monarchy comes from France and that the Normans who invaded England were French. They're own royal coat of arms is in French for god's sake.

Either the above is true or the English are English, the English make their king's English, blame nationalism for confusing this simple concept that nobility and peasantry are different sub species

Also normans weren't french but Norman
They have their own language, culture and ethnicity

This is bait right? Normans weren't French because there wasn't even a French national identity until long after William
the Conqueror took the English throne. On top of that, the House of Normandy weren't even Franks, they were vikings
who were given a duchy at the mouth of the seine to defend against other vikings. More importantly the current ruling
family is the House of Hanover which is Dutch/German

Please elaborate
Well that coat of arms you posted was created when the royal family ruling England was Scottish and the current royal family are German. Neither Scottish or German people are Normans last I checked

Nice grammar OP.
>why do anglos have such a hard time recognizing that they're monarchy comes from France
Because there hasnt been a French King of England for 500+ years and closer to 6 or 7 hundred years if you go by culture alone.
That said Anglos dont deny the importance of the french influence in their languages or the roles foreign nobles have played in their history.

It doesn't. Monarchy's are royal houses, Pier, and the houses change. The Tudor house, for example was of Welsh and English ancestry. Not French in the least.
The current Royal family, the Windors, are actually German. They were originally a branch of the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha
