@Inquisitor of this Flavortown that's a nice map except for the part where the English crowns rule was only recognised around Dublin until the later 1500s lol
Ireland was a kingdom because the Pope himself stated it to be so
Hello Irishgang
I am also Irish and would like to know
What can you tell me about the Celts?
And is it true that some Englishmen are also celts themselves
That is true yeah
They'd be correct in a certain sense that the Anglo Saxons didn't entirely replace the native Britons, but the culture and mindset of the English has always been antithetical to the broader Celtic one that the rest of us share
They'd only be Celts to the extent someone living in Romania could claim to be to a Roman
French nationalists claim something similar they call themselves Gauls, tho that makes sense to distinguish themselves from Germans, their greatest rivals
In the English nationalist context it's mostly a disingenuous attempt at having a claim of brotherhood with the other people's of the region
If you want to know about the Celts I recommend reading Nora Chadwick's book on them and watching a YouTube channel who's name I forgot but I'll post in a sec
Not this one but it's a good video anyway
@Augustus InFuccsticks this is the guy
@NormanLord One might almost say... the English have become... Anglo-Celtic...
Instead of Anglo-Saxon

@AngloCelticRebel It all depends on what you mean by Celtic, the English don't belong to a cultural or linguistic group which could be described as Celtic, if anything the English have been characterised by standing in opposition to the cultural, metaphysical and spiritual substance of the Celtic worldview, such as can be pieced together. If you mean the English are Celts by blood then you'd have to find a genetic Celt to point to in the first place, which you couldn't, the Celts who came to these islands only came in as limited numbers as the Saxons or Vikings did, their genetic impact was far less than their cultural, something like 90% of people in the British isles (for want of a better term) are descended from either paleo or Neolithic settlers, the farther west and North you go from London the lower the % of the latter
