You think that the druids (!!!), Celts and Vikings conquered England, you think that the French imposed their language on the English royal court!!! You change your argument all the time (Even the youngest school child knows that the royal family changed their name during world war one) but worst of all, you fail to understand the most basic part of the argument that Britain and England are NOT THE SAME THING! you honestly think you have "Game. Set. Match." when even the most fundamental part of your flawed argument is totally and utterly wrong - England is not an island, Britain is but England is NOT! There is no point arguing with someone who cannot grasp the basics so I'm out. |

(LOL I DO understand the differences mate - when you bring Scotland, Ireland and even Whales into it all the names change around. But we're still talking about, you know, Merry Ol' whatever.) Yeah, and if Vikings didn't take parts of England/Britain than how did y'all get all those Viking town names scattered throughout your lovely countryside? And you still haven't explained how FRENCH became the official language of the BRITISH (English whatever) Court. That must still sting after all these years, oui? :D |
were all branches of the same root tribe?
oops , your fascism is showing. |

England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are countries in their own right. England, Scotland and Wales make up Great Britain. England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland make up the United Kingdom. England, Scotland, Wales, Northern and Southern Ireland make up the British Isles. French was used in the English courts for a few centuries as it was seen as a "high class" language, a kind of snobbery. in no way was it ever imposed upon them by the French which is what you argued. Yes, Vikings did settle in parts of Northern England but in no way did they conquer any of it, it was a peaceful settlement. the Vikings that raided the costal towns raided then left - it was just that , a raid. I think your problem is that you don't understand the meaning of the word "conquer". Quote:
Either you actually really do believe what you type, in which case I feel sorry for you (walking and chewing gum at the same time must be a big ambition for you). Or you are a very inept troll. |

(And you are wrong about the Vikings mate. Raids yes but also = conquer. The "problem", really, is for many centuries "England" was a 'work in progress' if you will; meaning there were many shiftings and alliances and wars and battles to secure that Island. So until the population stabilized it was a patchwork of mini-kingdoms, fealties etc. So there wasn't really a unified 'Kingdom" to "conquer" in the traditional sense. So, PARTS of England were conquered along the way is my point.) Quote:
Heil Windsor! |

We all know how the Brits hate to be embarrassed, always so demure and repressed. 1917 must've been a real sticky wicket eh? Heil Windsor!! |
Quote:
Oh and if settling in English towns makes Vikings conquers then all those Asians and Africans doing the same in many British towns are conquers too? No? |

Added to your similar stupid ramblings on football that you showed during Wold cup I think that you may be just stupid and not a troll. |

(But my stance on the World Cup, shared by most Americans, is 100% accurate and truthful. Kick, pass, pass, kick....pass, pass, pass.....pass, pass, kick....SHOOT! Nope, out-of-bounds so let's kick the bloody ball around mid-field for another twenty minutes. Very exciting stuff. And isn't it 'futbol'?) Quote:
Who's ignoring embarrassing facts now eh? LOL So, to play into the nit-picky nature of your ilk I will adjust and say this: 'England' (notice the quotes) or whatever the bloody hell it was called during this time period or that, was CONQUERED by many peoples (Rome, Vikings, bloody William, etc) ON ITS WAY to becoming England. So I stand by what I said, little kingdoms or not. The bloody island isn't that fucking BIG yo, it's not like the US or Europe in size. Jeez Louise. Let's just say the ISLAND was conquered many times. I know this hurts you very deeply to admit this, being the (former) British Empire and the sun never setting, etc etc. But hey, you still have The Falklands, don't you? :D |
Knock Knock,
Hi we are the Vikings, we just moved in next door. Could we borrow some sugar? Were not you the gang that raided us last year, burnt our house, raped my wife and killed my son. My bad, but we have settled down now. OK I'll just get that sugar for you. England, never invaded, one race under God until them bloody imigrants came ere. |
