  • 1066. Vikings, Normans, Anglo-Saxons. The Battle of Hastings. The climactic events in the 6th year of the 6th decade of the 11th century in England had their origins much earlier in the 1000's, with the likes of the great Viking lords Cnut the Great and Sweyn Forkbeard, as well as those Anglo-Saxons who fought tooth and nail against them like Edmund Ironside and Edward the Confessor.

    4:10 Edmund and Cnut's agreement after the battle of Ashington was that Cnut would rule Northumbria, Mercia and East Anglia, while Edmund would rule Wessex. Whichever of them outlived the other would inherit the other portion of the land and become king of a united England

Ignoring bad actors on one side because of political bias and ignoring valid concerns of one side drives them to become more extreme and and can encourage others to turn to these extremist movements. Globalist Socialism vs. National Socialism? Neither has any place in modern society.

    Fun Fact: Since Cnut the Great formed an empire and was Christian, the Pope granted him the ability to excommunicate. This means that if the Kings of either Norway or Denmark converted to Catholicism they could excommunicate almost anyone, as only the HRE’s emperor lost the power to excommunicate

      ​@@jackjft9654 Did you get your history lessons from 4chan and reddit? lol You clearly know nothing about Bulgarian history, so you why are you acting tough with me? I didn't say Bulgaria had the largest empire during that entire period, you are putting words into my mouth and you seem to have trouble reading properly. I said we had the largest empire AT ONE POINT during that period of time. In particular during the late 900s to early 1000 AD. For several hundred years, Bulgaria DID had THE largest Empire on the entire continent, and we did also had a long golden age from around 900 AD to early 1000 AD during which we not only created the cyrilic alphabet but we also spread it throughout Europe, and we also spread religion and culture. That's why Russia and the entire eastern part of Europe is Christian today! We gave Russia Christianity, culture and language. To say we weren't important in history just shows you know nothing about Bulgarian history. We were THE most important nation at one point in Europe, since Bulgarian King was the Emperor of the east Roman Empire for several decades. Learn some history from history textbooks and stop parroting 4chan and reddit memes. Also, we weren'tpart of Europe for most of our history? What? How does that even make any sense? We are geographically IN Europe, so how we not be part of Europe in any moment of time in our history? If you're referring to the Ottoman occupation, that lasted 400 years, a small part of our 2000+ years of history, and even during that occupation, we were still part of Europe.

My results denoted mostly anglosaxon, danish, finnish, baltic..and even a little bit of italian..and further renfinements to my raw data displays langobardic ancestry..thus I think this accounts for the small proportion that was identified. And after further testing still, there isn't an iota of anything romance based whatsoever. Not that I would mind...it's just insane how so many germanic peoples are genetically intertwined throughout the course of history.
