@nobodyishome Anglo-Saxons are the Germanic population that invadsd the British Isles. They supplanted a lot of the indigenous Celt population. The remaining Celts are the Welsh, Irish, Scots, Manx and Cornish.

@basilfawlty89 thanks. What is Celt
basilfawlty89 · 36-40, M
@nobodyishome the indigenous peoole if Ireland, Britain and Northwestern France.
They speak the Celtic language family which consists of two existing branches - Goidelic and Brythonic
Irish, Scottish Gaelic and Manx are Goedelic, speaking various types of Gaelic.
Welsh, Cornish and Bretons (from France) speak the Brythonic varieties.
You'll recognize Celtic cultural symbols like Celtic knots, Tartans, High Crosses, Bagpipes, Tin Whistles, etc.

@basilfawlty89 aha that's nice to know. I'm hoping to move to Denmark soon. So this is interesting to know. Can you tell me more :)

@nobodyishome sure, what would you like to know?
nobodyishome · 31-35, F
@basilfawlty89 ummm about the history of England.
basilfawlty89 · 36-40, M
@nobodyishome England was from what we know first settled by Brythonic Celts.
That's where the legend of King Arthur comes from. They were invaded first by the Romans then the Anglo-Saxons, the Anglo-Saxons become the early English.
Later it was invaded by French and Vikings.
The early kings of England were Anglo-Saxons, Welsh, Scots, Norse, French, Dutch and finally German.
