Obviously they're British, but that's a nationality; I'm talking about ethnicity.

A mix of Anglo and Celtic. The islanders probably consider themselves a mix of Celtic and Nordic.
>>
>>70077063
Either British or Gaelic/Celtic/Irish
>>
>>70077063
Only people on the islands up north would actually consider themselves Nordic, and Anglo as a term doesn't really exist irl. So I guess out of those three most would say Celtic

Most people would just consider themselves Scottish because they aren't NEETs who obsess over this stuff
>>
>>70077063
>Do Scottish people consider themselves Anglo, Celtic, or Nordic?
I would say that about 0.001% or less of the population have asked themselves that question.
>>
>>70077063
Ethnic Scots are generally recognised as Celtic
>>
>>70077063
Scots, like the English are a mixture of all of them.

being raped by vikings kind of does that

then again...
>>
>>70084133
True, but Scots use 'Celt' in the same way as English use 'Anglo-Saxon' - more a national myth of ethnic origin than any fact
>>
British personally. I'm probably the least nationalistic Scot you'll ever meet. I think we should just be absorbed by England
>>
>>70084283
Terrible opinion.
>>
>>70084283
60% of the population consider themselves 'Scottish Only' (Scottish & British and British Only are also options) on the census.

Also you're a dippit cunt.
>>
>>70077063
Scots are "Irish" therefore Celtic therefore do a research before opening a retarded thread.
>>
>>70084640
>Scots are "Irish"
Nope
>>
>>70084692
Scotii were an Irish tribe m8
>>
>>70084692
They are though.
Irish a.k.a Gaels invaded the Picts ( who were also Celts) and the result became the Scots.

Why the fuck you don't know this shit about your own fucking island.
>>
>>70084788

>>
>>70085050
I believe that's why he had "Irish" in commas

He was talking about them in the same way as Anglo-Saxons are to England.
>>
>>70084960
They didn't, some gaels settled the west coast, and some pict princes fled there to stop getting murdered. When they returned as kings they were culturally gaelic and slowly converted what used to be the pictish kingdom into a gaelic one

This meme again
>>
>>70085351
Again hence comparisons to the Anglo-Saxons

Although Scotland and Ireland tend to have very similar penetrations of diseases that are unusual outside of "celtic" populations (besides phenotypes like ginger hair), so calling Scots Celts is a lot more accurate than calling English people Anglo
>>
>>70085604
Yeah but calling English people celts is also more accurate than calling English people anglo.
>>
>>70085664
Yea, the question was more a thing of identity than factual genetic lineage.

A more accurate example is Hungary and Magyars. Most Hungarians probably aren't directly descended from marauding Turkic nomads but they call themselves Magyars
>>
>>70085604
I don't think calling Scottish people Celts is wrong, its probably the most accurate description. Although the whole idea calling people 'celts' or 'anglos' is super stupid

Aye, I do. I also mean the Western Isles, they have some Nordic influence but it's overshadowed mostly by the Irish influence.

>>70077063
Anglo isn't an ethnicity, it's a culture. The ethnicity is Celtic and Anglos from UK are Celtic.
>>
>>70084010
No, they're not. They're pretty much genetically identical to the English.
>>
Lowland scots are Anglo
>>
>>70091409
Anglo is typically short for Anglo-Saxon, which is certainly a mutt crossbreed ethnicity.
>>
>>70091933
Anglo was only ever used in treaties before the eternal anglo meme was created. They'd always before called Saxons or Anglo Saxons before that.

Slightly incorrect

Three groups migrated to Britain from Germany/Denmark

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saxons
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angles
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jutes

The former 2 were politically powerful in their new home, concentrated in specific areas (which is why words like Essex and Wessex exist, East-saxons and West-saxons, West Anglia, etc.) but the Jutes got rolled into their sphere despite being just important.

All three were distinct on the continent. In fact just look at Denmark alone

Celts but without the pan-celtiscism espoused by the Irish. Always hilarious when Paddy thinks he's going to team up with the Scots, all the while forgetting the angry bastards squatting on Ulster are the very people they think are their pals.
