Do Scottish people consider themselves Anglo, Celtic, or Nordic?
Obviously they're British, but that's a nationality; I'm talking about ethnicity.

A mix of Anglo and Celtic. The islanders probably consider themselves a mix of Celtic and Nordic.
Either British or Gaelic/Celtic/Irish
Only people on the islands up north would actually consider themselves Nordic, and Anglo as a term doesn't really exist irl. So I guess out of those three most would say Celtic
Most people would just consider themselves Scottish because they aren't NEETs who obsess over this stuff
>Do Scottish people consider themselves Anglo, Celtic, or Nordic?
I would say that about 0.001% or less of the population have asked themselves that question.
Ethnic Scots are generally recognised as Celtic
Scots, like the English are a mixture of all of them.
was expecting a yank flag
>The islanders probably consider themselves a mix of Celtic and Nordic.
being raped by vikings kind of does that
then again...
True, but Scots use 'Celt' in the same way as English use 'Anglo-Saxon' - more a national myth of ethnic origin than any fact
British personally. I'm probably the least nationalistic Scot you'll ever meet. I think we should just be absorbed by England
Terrible opinion.
60% of the population consider themselves 'Scottish Only' (Scottish & British and British Only are also options) on the census.
Also you're a dippit cunt.
Scots are "Irish" therefore Celtic therefore do a research before opening a retarded thread.
>Scots are "Irish"
Nope
Scotii were an Irish tribe m8
They are though.
Irish a.k.a Gaels invaded the Picts ( who were also Celts) and the result became the Scots.
Why the fuck you don't know this shit about your own fucking island.
Means fuck all.
Also means fuck all.
I believe that's why he had "Irish" in commas
He was talking about them in the same way as Anglo-Saxons are to England.
They didn't, some gaels settled the west coast, and some pict princes fled there to stop getting murdered. When they returned as kings they were culturally gaelic and slowly converted what used to be the pictish kingdom into a gaelic one
>Scots are "Irish"
This meme again
Again hence comparisons to the Anglo-Saxons
Although Scotland and Ireland tend to have very similar penetrations of diseases that are unusual outside of "celtic" populations (besides phenotypes like ginger hair), so calling Scots Celts is a lot more accurate than calling English people Anglo
Yeah but calling English people celts is also more accurate than calling English people anglo.
Yea, the question was more a thing of identity than factual genetic lineage.
A more accurate example is Hungary and Magyars. Most Hungarians probably aren't directly descended from marauding Turkic nomads but they call themselves Magyars
I don't think calling Scottish people Celts is wrong, its probably the most accurate description. Although the whole idea calling people 'celts' or 'anglos' is super stupid
>Edinburgh
>English
kek
That's Dundee you plonker
pajeet spotted.
Do you know where Edinburgh is?
Yea, it's more a case of foundation myths than anything else, but that's the same as pretty much everywhere
Its actually st. andrews, which is pretty funny
Scots are Scythians
Irish are Aryans
Shit, so it is
Mistook the Forth and the Tay
Literally go to uni in Dundee as well
Yea, on double checking it's south of the Tay so not Dundee
>Dundee uni education
Is the university of dundee a meme?
What about Braveheart upsets Scottish people? It's a good movie with based Gibson.
Dundee and Abertay are the unis for retards.
it's inaccurate as fuck. The whole Battle of Stirling Bridge didn't even feature a fucking bridge.
Dundee is a meme
Not enough bridges
He probably means further up, the Orkney and Shetland islands. The people up there share a lot of their ancestry with Norwegians.
But it has cool battles with men in no armor fucking up men in armor.
Apocalypto >>> all other mel films
He should have put a bit more effort in for us
Rob Roy does it better
Me too
Abertay is Dundee isn't
Who /Fife/ here?
[spoiler]who /Dunfermline/ here?[/spoiler]
How's the fight against the unicorns going Angus?
My cousin is from Dunfermline
Not brutal enough for me. I can't pop a stiffy from some dudes fencing.

>Dundee and Abertay are the unis for retards.
Dundee medical school is the best in Scotland and 4th best in the UK
Aye, I do. I also mean the Western Isles, they have some Nordic influence but it's overshadowed mostly by the Irish influence.
Anglo isn't an ethnicity, it's a culture. The ethnicity is Celtic and Anglos from UK are Celtic.
No, they're not. They're pretty much genetically identical to the English.
Lowland scots are Anglo
Anglo is typically short for Anglo-Saxon, which is certainly a mutt crossbreed ethnicity.
Anglo was only ever used in treaties before the eternal anglo meme was created. They'd always before called Saxons or Anglo Saxons before that.
Slightly incorrect
Three groups migrated to Britain from Germany/Denmark

The former 2 were politically powerful in their new home, concentrated in specific areas (which is why words like Essex and Wessex exist, East-saxons and West-saxons, West Anglia, etc.) but the Jutes got rolled into their sphere despite being just important.
All three were distinct on the continent. In fact just look at Denmark alone
Thanks for the perfectly obvious history lesson amerifriend!
Then stop saying Angles didn't exist.
I'm not that guy, but it was perfectly obvious what he was inferring and you're autistic.
Yes, what he was inferring was
>They'd always before called Saxons or Anglo Saxons before that.
Which is quantifiably wrong
Literal autism
>inferring
why do so many native speakers make that mistake?
Too bad DNA test are forbidden in France.
I' ve always want to know whose closer to west brittany, Welsh, Cornwall or Devon ?
>the sky is normally neon green
>nah bro, it's normally blue
>you're an autist
If this is the hill you want to die on, I really do think you're retarded friend.
Celts but without the pan-celtiscism espoused by the Irish. Always hilarious when Paddy thinks he's going to team up with the Scots, all the while forgetting the angry bastards squatting on Ulster are the very people they think are their pals.
Ah yes, our rape babies, the only whites on the british isles...

Can't you just ship it to the Netherlands and pick it up?

>tfw from a norse colony
My parents agree with you. They also left Scotland, however, as has every other Scot I've ever met with that opinion.
Surprised you're still up there, desu
is that actually true in general or just about paternity testing? because there are French Parisian and Southern samples in plenty of genetic studies I've seen
If you're from a danish place it's fake norse and not real norse.

What the fuck? Is this a meme or actually true?
The 2004 Bioethics Act prohibits any examination of an ethnic nature.
Concept of race or ethnicity are illegal there btw.
Donno, we're under Norwegian control in the 1066 start date in ck2 though.
i'm irish-english by heritage so anglo celt probably
Celtic, definitely not British
>concepts are illegal
Jesus I thought the UK was a mess, thats some thought police level shit
Don'y you have an MP (or whatever France has) you can write to and complain about it.
