WEW LAD

What standard are you using that makes the Tudors Welsh but the Plantagenets French? Henry Tudor was literally 1/4 French.

>Submit to foreign domination
>It's okay because you like how their cock tastes

So why didn't the English just proclaim Mary the queen? Why wait for William to invade and then proclaim him the king? This looks pretty much like an invasion.

It's not impregnable, the most astonishing thing about England is that it will assimilate you.

How it this astonishing? The French, the Bulgarians, the Russians, the Italians, the Chinese and many others have successfully assimilated their invaders.

>English parliament invites Dutch Stadtholder to rule their country

After sailed with an invasion fleet that took six months to assemble and marched an army into London that kept it occupied for a year.

>tudors
>welsh

well this is a pretty awful table

(You)
If anything, it's astonishing the Britons weren't able to assimilate the Anglo-Saxons while everywhere else the German invaders were assimilated by the natives in a couple of centuries.

Switzerland. They were impenetrable.

Have Celts been able to assimilate anyone anywhere?

Yes, a large number of the native peoples during their expansion, even in the middle of Anatolia.

>Be American
>Make statements that are so ignorant while on the internet it reveals your Americaness to the entire planet

No European royal family is of their subject's nationality you fucking mong. The nobility has existed as a seperate race practically for thousands of years. They breed with one another: French marry Spanish, Italian marry Swedish. They are all a mongrel mix.

If you're interested the current Queen of the UK is directly descended from Victoria, despite them not being in the same House. Just proves what I'm saying really.

How long before Britain has a Muslim monarchy?

>England
>German Crown

>English???

yeah keep living a lie,

Latterly by having nothing of material or strategic value to make the effort worthwhile.

i wished I have raped elizabeth back when she's just a teen

Henry Tudor lived in Brittany, he was able to speak with the Bretons as Welsh, Cornish, and Breton are very similar.

The current Maternal line is British, but the Paternal is Danish-German

Henry Tudor is a cousin of Owain Glyndwr, Tudor should really be spelled Tudwr.

> See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gwilym_ap_Tudur

The female the Tudors married into wasn't English either, absolutely nothing English about the Tudors.

Do any of you know why King John was so controversial? Because he had to consolidate power in England as he was defeated in his homeland, which was Normandy and Anjou.

The Plantagenets and Normans would rather hold court in Rouen or Angers as their capital, London was ceremonial.

Is there anything more sad and pathetic than britbong revisionism?

It's not British, it's English Nationalism borne out of the Glorious Revolution.

it's an island you dumb fuck

this explains a lot

This little Corsican disagrees with you

More like typical angloshit pretends not to be anglo and fools no one.

>yfw bongs were conquered by frogs 4 (four) times in less than 300 years

It's almost as if France had a population 5x that of England for 800 years

You shouldn't have posted this while the Americans were awake, OP. Everyone knows they don't know shit about any history but their own.

>It's almost as if France had a population 5x that of England for 800 years

pure revisionism

'England and Wales had some 3 million inhabitants around 1300, which rose to 4 or 5 million in the late 1300's. The Black Death annihilated about half of the population. In the 15th century, it had dropped to 2 million, 8 times less than in France. The population grew back to 5 million by 1700, and to 9 million in 1800. At the dawn of the 19th century, the United Kingdom with Scotland and Ireland, had a population of 16 million, almost like Italy (17 million), but still lower than France (27 million) or Germany (25 million).'

>The Normans are french the same way that Algerians that live in France now are french
>Civil War is apparentely a french invasion
>repulsed
>a successful french invasion that results in a peace treaty instead of conquering england

the french are meme for reason they can't even consolidate their victories and usually squander their opportunities, allowing their enemies regroup before killing them. Whether its Germans, Vietnamese, Britbongs or in some cases the entirety of fucking europe they never manage to finish the job and end up getting owned. The only good thing they've done recently was chimp out and kill their monarchy but really Charlemagne was their best since then its been shit

All I'm hearing is excuses.

That's not an excuse, that's a reason.

Japan? Scandinavia?

>1066: Frenchman Guillaume le Batard conquers England and becomes its new ruler

> they can't even consolidate their victories

lmao why are bongs such a joke

A reason why England is such a pathetic piece of shit that gets conquered constantly despite having the massive advantage of being an island.

>>The Normans are french the same way that Algerians that live in France now are french

More like in the same way that French people that live in France now are French, despite the 10% or so immigrants.

Literally why are you on a history board if you have no respect for history? It's not a fucking video game where some people are baddies and others are goodies. There are no 'excuses' for defeats. It's just what fucking happened, and we're interested in WHY it happened. In this case, the why is that Britain's population was far smaller than France's.
For fuck's sake, people like you are so irritating. You want to boil history down to a couple of elements so that you can understand it in one sentence.

Wtf! William the dutchy fag invaded it in a bloodless coup

>complains about lack of respect in britbong revisionism thread #16867923 on the worst shitposting board in all of Veeky Forums

An island doesn't mean shit unless you have a superior navy to your enemy. France had a superior navy until 1700.

Furthermore, other countries have been conquered far more than England.

England as an entity was conquered in 1066 and 1688.

France was conquered in 1870, 1813, 1940, 1944, 49, and 1415.

England has historically had a population miniscule to France, so it doesn't have a bad track record.

>this board is already shitty quality so I can be retarded

>The invasion was planned and organised long before a tiny group of unrepresentative, and not particularly important, English dissidents sent their so-called 'invitation' to the Prince of Orange. And although William led the invasion, he had very limited powers in the Dutch Republic. The armada and army were sent, and paid for, by the Dutch States General, Amsterdam and the regents, the group of urban patricians who ran the Dutch state. The Dutch army landed in Devon and gained military control of southern England. It had little assistance from the English rebels. They were too frightened to move against James II's substantial standing army until some three weeks after William's invasion had begun.

>The Prince of Orange held the strategic initiative from the outset. On paper, James had 40,000 men, but they were dispersed all over the country and there was no way he could concentrate an army as large as William's quickly enough. James finally drew up his forces on Salisbury Plain to bar William's path to London, but his army was smaller than the Prince's, as well as inferior in training, experience and equipment, and it was clear that if he fought, he would probably lose. That is why James abandoned the fight for London and retreated, demoralised.

Bloodless because the enemy fled to Ireland.

>The Normans are french the same way that Algerians that live in France now are french
t. William the Bastard

all that mainland cock thrust into it taught her a thing or two about island invasion and conquering though

What the fuck are you even quoting?

Jonathan Israel

lmao what

England was conquered 5 times:
- 1066
- 1153
- 1215
- 1326
- 1688

In the same time-span France was conquered 3 times:
- 1814
- 1870
- 1940

even though England is separated from Europe by the sea, whereas France is the most desirable piece of land right in the middle of Western Europe completely surrounded by powerful and aggressive nations.

Norman isn't even close to French

Norman is literally French with an almost imperceptible accent you hilariously butthurt peasant.

Aren't you forgetting the three times England was conquered during the Wars of the Roses?

Conquered by whom? I'm being fair to England here, it doesn't count if it's a civil war.

...

1215 Invasion was repelled. 1326 was a Pretender from the same kingdom. 1153 ended in Stephen recognizing Henry as the heir.

I like how you ignored half my other cited invasions of France for unspoken reasons.

Let's face it, you don't really know, or care about history. You're posting here because you feel too smart for /int/, and you've grown out of r/Polandball.

Not even an accent really, it's pretty much just French with a handful of loanwords.

Also half of the so-called "Normans" who joined William in conquering England weren't even from Normandy.

...

An English pretender backed by a number of supports and a French or Burgundian army and their gold.

I believe they launched three invasions all from continental Europe and every single one succeeding. If anything this prompted England under the Tudors to work on their coastal defense and navy.

See And your dates are just nonsense. 1949? lmao wtf, time to stop posting.

Oh wow 13 words are different from French, clearly it's NOT EVEN CLOSE

Shit meme. The vast majority of Henry VII's army was made up of Lancastrian troops.

49 AD, retard.

Many were Britons returning to liberated their lands from the filthy saxon hordes.

During the Wars of the Roses, the factions tripped over each other trying to claim to be the returning Briton Cadwaladr, who was mentioned in Geoffrey of Monmouth's prophecy.

> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadwaladr

It's a 'we call the people who lived within today's geographical borders the nationality that they would now be instead of what they were then' episode, huh?

It's almost like these are examples and not the only separate ones.

> en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_of_Richmond

France was conquered five centuries before it existed, under the reign of emperor Nero?

lmao bongs

It was a unified entity under Gaul.

That's a precedent you don't want to set Lloyd
Under your terms every group of Germanic tribesmen who ever set foot on your precious island is a different invasion

Oh, no, those are legitimate invasions of Britain. it's just England wasn't a unified identity, England didn't exist.

Also, modern English identity is from the Germanic invaders.

Well no, it was a province of Rome and nothing of importance happened in 49 AD.

But going by that England was also conquered by Celts, Romans, Angles, Saxons, Danes... and I'm probably missing some.

>But going by that England was also conquered by Celts, Romans, Angles, Saxons, Danes... and I'm probably missing some.

They conquered the island of Britain, not England. Those Angles and Saxons went on to form England from the land.

I don't think any modern British person subscribes to Pre Germanic identity.

>modern English identity

Protestant Ethnic Nationalism based upon Jews, where if you were Catholic, you were Non-White. Literally the worst people in history.

>Protestant Ethnic Nationalism based upon Jews, where if you were Catholic, you were Non-White.

>I have never been to England: The Post

Yep. Nothing new.

I've lived in England, London. I went to primary school there, near Maida Vale. Lots of family in the commuter belt of London.

> btw I'm the CAMBRO NORMAN

Using London as a measurement of English Nationalism is like using New York as a basis for US Nationalism. Also you're a welsh cunt so you're a tad bias.

I was referring to the Glorious Revolution you fucking numpty.

What? What are you talking about?

Also, your reaction image shows you're probably not old enough to be posting here.
