No, the English were conquered by the Vikings. Till a Norman (Frenchman?) drove them out and took over. So the English are Scandanavian, French and American (from the last invasion-1942 to 1945). First were the Picts, then the Celts, Romans, Angles, Saxons, Danes, Normans (who were descended from the Norse, hence Nor-), then some Huguenots, A Dutchman, a German, then the West Indians, the Ugandan Asians, other Asians and them some Hong Kong Chinese. And you thought America wa made up of immigrants. Wow! I hadn't realized how many times you chaps were conquered. Trying to give Sicily a run for the money then? I'm technically 3/4 Celtic I suppose (1/4 Cornish, 1/4 Scottish, 1/4 Welsh [], 1/4 English). But until there's a Celtic international (not that rabble from Glasgow before anyone says anything) team I'm English Theres Boston.....
