Why did the English based their national identity around a bunch

What are you talking about?

In the long run, you don't choose your nationality. Also, the kangs in England were not entirely of local stock either. That's probably why England has a such a social divide and why the elites in England import so many pakis and so on.

Which is funny because even those(anglo-saxons) were the conquerors(foreigners).
The only true natives are romano-celts or simply celts like welsh people.
Kng Arthur is celebrated in the UK even though he was a legend that fought agaisn't them

the Plantagenet did not get "beat by normans"
it was through succession

Britain had a pretty shitty spawn location, cucked by Celts, cucked by Romans, cucked by Celts fighting the Romans, cucked by Romans again, cucked by Germans, cucked by VIkings, cucked by Normans. And from this menagerie of immigrants and rape babies, England was born.

And then we cucked the world.

Our spawn location is the best. Far enough away from the roman rapetrain yet close enough that we could learn civilization by discovering them and not the other way around.

>>78108880
no, britain is the best

the roman raped britain because they didn't unify, while the seperate nordic peoples got off the island and wrecked the mainland the britons didn't need to as the land was plenty

after england united under a foreign rule they were able to influence the world as easy as just trade, they didn't even have to have a significant land army, throughout history they had a very small overseas land army simply because of their superior naval position

>got off the island
peninsula* obvs

>>78108930
But most of them died. The Romans burned down settlements just to draw out enemy armies. That's terrible.

Drop the proxy

The majority of the British population are still Celtic though. The Angles/Saxons, etc., kept to themselves in the South/South Eastern part of England, and even there they're not the majority. L21 is Celtic, S21/S28 are what we would call Anglo-Saxon.

>fuck the Irish we're British!

Exactly, fuck the Irish, become the Irish.

they also introduced culture and language when practically no one speak any form of celtic in england, they may still exist but not as celts

>>78109199
Culture can be changed in a generation, DNA is impossible to change. If the British public were aware of their actual heritage, "Anglo-Saxon" pride/culture would die overnight.

>>78109247
but not history

>>78108831
WE

>>78109300
I don't see what that has to do with anything. Apart from people having a new perspective on that history after learning about their heritage.
