Charlemagne

king of arthurs

Kralj Matjaž (king Matthew), a mythical figure that sleeps under Peca mountain on the present Austrian-Slovenian border and who is sometimes equated with Matthias Corvinus of Hungary, but is more likely based on the leader of a peasant rebellion in Carinthia in the late 1470s.

Me

King Arthur

...

King Arthur.

King of the Arthurs.

but did you vote for him?

We don't have anything similair. I don't think any other country has something similair, really.

That film is kino in its purest form.

Denmark and many other countries have got the same legend. I don't think it was vased on a real person.

Nacho vidal, he wields the Spanish Excalibur.

Beowulf

Was written by fucking Saxons

...

and if you actualy read Beowulf you'd know he was a Geat, aka Swedish.

My point is that Beuwulf isn't one of our great national works.
It was a character and story written by and meant to be read by Saxons.
Even fucking Pippi Långstrump would be a better example.

Aeneas maybe? don't know really

Pippi isn't real though. King Arthur is theorised to be based partly in real history. It's also possible that a real life Beowulf existed. And who's to say that the story didn't originate in Sweden before being written down by Saxons?

Does superman count?
Are we supposed to say we're anglo and therefore king arthur is our king Arthur?

King Alfred

my dick and your mums cunt

>Does superman count?

Maybe.

Dom Sebastião

...

Gandalf isn't Finnish, sorry to disappoint you

You don't know what a King is for?

You retarded or raised by wolves away from human civilization or something?

Before 1822 Brazil used to be of Portugal.

>Italian education

Tolkien took elvish language from finnish though

William Tell

no. I'm guessing here, but I imagine king arthur was the guy who pulled excalibur out of the rock. apart from that I know nothing about him.

No. I'm just not a monarchist piece of shit like you, traitor. I couldn't care less about royal lineages.

Doesn't surprise me, forest Finns are basicaly real life elves

>foreigners don't know about Elegast or any of the paladins.

Camelot is Camelodunum, capital of pre-Anglo-Saxon Roman Britain. Today's Colchester.

Rodrio Diaz de Vivar aka "El Cid"

There is only one worthy screen adaption of King Arthur
