    Default Til that England is named after a Nordic tribe.

    Used to think that they were from germany until saw a map of migration period where original location of those tribes were located...

    Angles, Jutes and most of Saxons were from Denmark/Nordic region. That's why they were stereotypically portraids as boond hairs blue eyed alphas.

    In English primary schools they never teach you about the jutes or Saxons or angles. They teach you about the Celts and Romans very vaguely and the rest is ancient Greece and Egypt, nothing else.

    In my days they used to teach you about it because of their relationship with the Frisians who also went over to England.

    The original name for England is Engel Land. The word 'Engel' translates as 'Angel' in Danish, Dutch, German, etc. Engel Land means 'Land of the Engels'. Engels means Angles in English.

    English people don't know or even give a damn about Frisians or have any type of kinship with Germanic peoples and don't really care about their history or roots. They just see the Germans as rivals in WW2

    I don't think that most people are that stupid.

    I think this probably applies to the whole Anglosphere because that's how it is here too.
