 @LydiaConwell @jay_peper @cmconseils @nrmacdonald @LydiaConwell @cmconseils Dude, we're talking ~600 AD, which empire are you talking about? @jay_peper @LydiaConwell @cmconseils @nrmacdonald that's the point. Arthurian legends predate England (and King Arthur would've fought against those that would create England ~300 years later. He would've been Welsh/Briton, but not English) @jay_peper @jay_peper @nrmacdonald I don't know why we're arguing, you didn't seem to like that I "corrected" you from England to Wales for the whole Ruler-via-sword-in-lake-meme (and I know 'Wales' is also kinda incorrect b/c it's a Saxon exonym for the Britons. But not sure if 'Cymry' would've confused even more) @jay_peper @nrmacdonald @jay_peper yes as a German I have to admit: whole GB/UK is generally perceived to be English. The others only appear either in football championships or in a particular topic. I am truly sorry for that. But’s comparable to the legend that every German wears Bavarian clothing and drinks beer 🍻 @Sunny @jay_peper @Sunny @nrmacdonald @jay_peper Hmm.. I as a German perceive this lovely island to be all Scottish... *G* What a lovely wee claidheamh-mòr for a quinee... 😉 "Welsh" would be Okay, too... BTW... I love to see how you two sorted out your issue.  @jay_peper @nrmacdonald Briton yes but not Welsh. He was king of Logres which is supposed to be the south and east of present-day England, and, through his mother, also ruled over Cornwall (Many versions make him rule over all the Britons though, including Wales, Cambria and Brittany - where most of Lancelot-related events happen)  @nrmacdonald @cmconseils why? The sword wasn't found in England and Arthur wasn't an English king  @mrsbeanbag @otfrom @cmconseils @nrmacdonald @otfrom @cmconseils well i know Cornwall used to be part of Wales, but not when this sword was found, which was in 2017. or when it was dropped in, for that matter, unless it was a magic sword, that could lie underwater for 1500 years and not rust to almost nothing  |
