yes
No the nation cannot change it's people
but it is
if a nation "changed" it's people it wouldn't be the same nation anymore lmao
Imagine calling yourself "the caledonian" and trying to pontificate about superior races
thats a theseus ship argument
...and as a result it's destroying the nation
imagine replacing ethnic French people with ethnic Turks and then calling France French
Because the core ethnos are the root
if they eat frogs legs and make baguettes then fine
As long as it says so in teh corporate charter yer gud
nations are evolutionary - france isn't what france was 500 years ago
the problem is when you change it via revolutionary measures
dumping millions of ethnic turks in france is revolutionary, not evolutioanry
^
if you bring them i nfast enough to exclude assimilation of course
Again a nation is defined by a shared ethnic heritage, that's literally what nation means
no wrong
thats not what defines a nation
definitely not solely
what about a conquered people
ytoud share a heritage with them
You could claim they share a POOL of shared ethnic heritage and a shared history
and theyd live in your borders
@Ethreen42 I am saying the British are best
Ahh shit, I agree with Leohte
```nation (n.)
c. 1300, nacioun, "a race of people, large group of people with common ancestry and language," from Old French nacion "birth, rank; descendants, relatives; country, homeland" (12c.) and directly from Latin nationem (nominative natio) "birth, origin; breed, stock, kind, species; race of people, tribe," literally "that which has been born," from natus, past participle of nasci "be born" (Old Latin gnasci), from PIE root *gene- "give birth, beget," with derivatives referring to procreation and familial and tribal groups.
The word is used in English in a broad sense, "a race of people an aggregation of persons of the same ethnic family and speaking the same language," and also in the narrower sense, "a political society composed of a government and subjects or citizens and constituting a political unit; an organized community inhabiting a defined territory within which its sovereignty is exercised."```

@Eccles We've been over this, the british have a commonality in heritage as any genomic company can recognise
there is no assimilating turks
25-40% Saxon and the rest is ancient Celt
that is not a thing that exists
That is the typical Englishman
Yes, and that commonality in genetics is largely a result of living in a pre-industrial pre-technological age
The notion of race will fuzz over time going forward
How does that relate to its existence?
"a political society composed of a government and subjects or citizens and constituting a political unit; an organized community inhabiting a defined territory within which its sovereignty is exercised."
Where did the celts come from originally?
Africa, Hopix
Just like everyone else
They sprang out of the ground like potatos
