Today's international and domestic circles are full of all kinds of related".The Angsa conspiracy"All kinds of rumors, such as the bombing of the Nord Stream pipelines last year, Medvedev directly said that the Angsa people did it.
The United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand are five countriesFive Eyes Allianceand, of course, an alliance of the Angsa people.
This "Angsa people", that is, the so-called".Anglo-SaxonsHow did it come into shape in the first place?
At least in the 6th century AD, before the term was invented, there was no such thing as an Anglo-Saxon nation, only a separate Germanic tribe: the Angles and the Saxons.
In the 5th century AD, the four major coastal tribes of the Germans:Anglos, Saxons, Jutes, and Frisians, summoned by Saxon mercenaries who were already on the island of Britain, crossed the sea and moved west to the south of the island of Britain, where it would have beenCelticland.
After the arrival of these Germanic peoples, they began to settle in this land. Today so-calledEnglandThe word, from:（engla lond）, referring to ".The land of the Anglos
The Angles settled in the east and northeast of present-day England.
The Saxons settled in the upper reaches of the Thames.
The Jutes, Frisians, settled in the southeastern part of present-day England.
The local Celts, of course, have to fight back resolutely against these invaders, movie".Transformers 5: The Last Knight"In the beginning, it was set against the backdrop of this history:King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table, with the invading Germanic barbarians:SaxonsDesperate and bloody battle.
In the fascinating legend of "King Arthur and His Knights of the Round Table", the famous "King Arthur" is believed to have been a Romanized Celtic chieftain and military commander who is said to have participated in 12 campaigns against the Saxons.
At that time, in the south-central part of today's England, there was a great ** situation, the west of the dividing line between the two sides was the small kingdom of the original Celts, and the east was the settlement of the major Germanic tribes.
In the early years, there was indeed a gap between the newcomers and the native Celts, as in Germanic languagewalsh", which means".Celtic speakers", or "speak."Latin speakersNow also start to refer toSerfs or slaves
WalesThat's where the name comes from.
The towns of the past decayed, but things were not so bad, and there is no evidence that the Germanic people who landed, committed genocide against the indigenous Celts. They didn't kill all the local Celts, because it would be useful for them to keep them.
Making good use of the legacy of the past is good for both the Anglos and the Saxons.
In the countryside, the Germanic settlers followed the old system and division of the land, and established Germanic-style buildings between the fields, and even kept the boundaries between the former Celtic kingdoms among the tribes.
They also adopted the local farming methods to cultivate the land.
Generations later, in the middle of the 6th century, the Anglos and Saxons wanted to cross the border with the Celtic kingdoms and continue westward to seize new territoriesPestilence.
Yes, the plague.
The plague can kill more natives than the colonizer's sword. For example, in the Americas in later generations, smallpox destroyed the Indians, such as the bubonic plague at this time, the destruction of the indigenous Celts.
Killed Europe in the later 14th century ADOne-thirdof the populationBubonic plague (Black Death)., which at this time spread from Egypt to Europe, including the island of Britain.
This time, it was no less powerful than the Black Death in later generations in Europe. Experts estimate today that the plague has reduced the population of England from 3 million to 4 million to 1 million.
Moreover, it seems that it was mainly the Celts in the area of present-day England that it fell, not the Germanic peoples. Large tracts of land were barren and uninhabited, and there was not enough manpower to defend the borders, so that the Germans could advance westward.
By 600 AD, 600 Anglo-Saxon kingdoms had appeared in the annals.
The locals were squeezed, and they had to flee the land and come to the northwest of France on the other side of the sea, where the Brittany region of France later appeared.
BretonsLoyal to his homeland, he did not consider himself a "Frenchman" for a long time to come. Part of the Breton troops in later generations in 1066 AD, along with "William the Conqueror"It's back in England. Finally, 400 years later, they returned and settled in their native land: the southwest of England.
It was not until 1282 that King Edward I invaded Wales, and the so-called "Anglo-Saxon invasion" came to an end, which took 800 years.
Slowly, the new Germanic settlers, mixed with the native Celts, and even blended togetherThe English NationBirth, the ancient words Anglo, Saxon and other words gradually lost their meaning.
