Why so many retards are confused?
Oh god not this retarded argument again.
England isn't fucking special to be mixed.
Yes, England probably has a little more Celt than Germanic, but so does Germany, especially the southern part.
Germans are mixed with Celts and Slavs. Dutch are mixed with Celts. Iceland and Faroe Islands are equal parts Germanic and Celt (vikings rape babies).
England and Lowland Scotland have been speaking a Germanic language for well over 1000 years.
If you are being this restrictive in your logic of whats Germanic literally only Danes would be Germanic.
German is incorrect word for calling german people and Austrian.
German include norman which is Scandinavian and any other germanic countries like germany austria swiss.
It's actually " Deutsche "
German call themselves Deutsche which Means people or populace.
The same reason so many people confuse Chinese and other Asians. If it's not your continent you hear about these things maybe once or twice during your school years.
Anglo language at fault
Germans speak Deutsch and the collection of ethnic groups are called Germanisch
German is the english translation of deutsche retard
>we
>muh blood
we have virtually nothing in common with any germanic country, culture, language, history, etc
Updated
Usually here you are classified as "Anglo-Saxon" not Germanic
>culture
While defintley not the same, Britain and most of the other Germanic countries are protestant
>language
English is a Germanic language nigel
>history
Anglo Saxons came from Germany/Netherlands
Normans were Norse who started speaking French
Denmark obviously had influence on Britain
I don't really get what you mean
why are austria and belgium separate from germany if they just are germans with weird accents?
Anglo Saxon is a subset of Germanic.
Personally I would divide Germanic cultures into North (Norse speaking cultures), South (West Germanic excluding those in Britain) and Anglo Saxon (English/Lowland Scots)
Memes aside, whats the logic excluding White Americans who are mostly descended from English, and the second largest contributor is Germans (and Scandinavians are close to third)?
Not only Belgium Austria but Netherlands also separated from holly roman empire ( middle age germany ) '-'
>White Americans
this literally has nothing to do with this post.
please fuck off and stop shitting up threads
based and redpilled
>memes aside
White Americans are on average only .4% non white
Brit shitting up threads
OH NO NO NONOOOOOOO
These people might not be Scandinavian/Scottish, but they definiteley aren't American
You're not American unless 100% of your ancestors were in America during Colonial times.
Everyone else is subhuman immigrants and should be fucking gassed
>angles were germanic
>saxons were germanic
>anglo-saxons are not germanic
yeh but the frog makes sense
for instance they would say anglo-saxon economy, it's not a race thing it means as opposed to the nordic model
I'm not wrong.
People descended from Immigrants are the worst people in America.
They are the cause of all problems and should be gassed
Thanks for proving my point by posting a picture of the average Italian-Irish nigger that I'm proposing we gas
He probably doesn't want to associate his country with genocide, Holocaust and culture of warmongering. I mean, what else is associated with the word "Germanic"?
Why do Brits shit up every single thread.
To be honest no one associates Germanic peoples with Nazis unless turboretards. Nazis were waging war on almost all Germanic countries at the same time...
Take the Scots and English out of there, along with English Canadians and ... ''White Americans''.
Some retards confuse German and Germanic, but some also confuse Language group and Ethnic group. There is a big difference between the English and other Germanic despite English being technically a Germanic language due to its roots.
The English are much more closer ethnically to the French and other peoples of the British Isles, than they are with other Germanic countries.
England isn't fucking special to be mixed.
Yes, England probably has a little more Celt than Germanic, but so does Germany, especially the southern part.
Germans are mixed with Celts and Slavs. Dutch are mixed with Celts. Iceland and Faroe Islands are equal parts Germanic and Celt (vikings rape babies).

Cringed reading this.
Amazing how the French pulled an upset and beat out the Americans, Aussies and Canadians for the dumbest thing said in this thread
Why are British obsessed with the US?
Because you will literally try your best to destroy Europe at least twice every century.
ITT based Britts incinerate mutts butts
More like Anglo butthurt being called Germanic, lmao
Why are brits hating on the USA and Germany so much in this thread?
Yeah, I don't know why Anglos are always the focus of this kind of attack. People always say they're "Celtic" but If anyone needs to have their identity questioned it's the Celts themselves, since modern Celts genetically have nothing to do with the original Celts of southern Germany and Austria. Likewise the French and Iberians are completely unrelated genetically to the original Latins in the Italian peninsular. If the English aren't considered Germanic, the "ethnicity" of 90% of Europe has to be questioned too.
Germanic is just pure LARP so no one remembers it.
>white australians are germanic
Lmao no. Most australians are descended from non-English immigrants, such as irish or italian or whatever.
I went into an irish pub in red on St. Patrick's day
more or less, enough migrations established a germanic foundation on which their society evolved
>tfw 100% e*ropoid american
You know what a small percentage of Americans that would leave, right? I don't think you'd be able to remove all those people. People descended from immigrants make up a majority of the army, navy, air force, legislature, judicial branch, executive branch, and populace. You're delusional if you think you can somehow gas all the people who come from a different background. And now I realize I just wrote an actual response to someone obviously trolling.
and you wrote it in English
makes you think
>we
Why the fuck do Americans always think they know everything so much better to the point that they know more about others than the others about themselves?
This is how it really is
I don’t care. They ruined our country
America’s downfall was letting in hordes of immigrants from Europe in the 1900’s, polluting the American gene pool of the real Americans, the Colonistd.
Now most of the north has been infected and their blood tainted by these immigrants.
you have the same failings
wtf is that supposed to mean?
Don’t say I’m wrong because you don’t understand the difference between ethnicity and nationality
Left part is correct but the right part should not be crossed out.
can't read?
>I'm a real American! I'm white you guys!
You're probably that Dutch-American faggot from /his/ who's trying to ignore his status as a swamp nigger
Why do you think you people have any right to decide what we are and what we aren't?
Can't even elaborate on a simple answer you gave?
it's not my job to interpret simple language for you, there's a part of the brain that does that for you
You can’t just get up and decide that Austrians aren’t german just because it’s not apart of BRD
Bayern is closer culturally to Austria than it is to Hamburg
How did they ruin the country? You do know many immigrants went to the South, right? It's not like most of Georgia is descended from the tiny Southern population in 1776. Also, how did they ruin the country? The 20th Century (and beyond) has been the most prosperous time in the history of
America. We are now the most powerful nation in the world with by far the largest economy in the world.
You cant just decide people are not germanic because they move to a different country. You are right that swiss and austrians are only germanic and not germans
The vast majority of the South is descended from colonial times.
Obviously Atlanta has a lot of transplants, that’s not who I’m referring to
Still you're dodging my question. You see to me it just looks like you're talking out of your ass.
Are dutchies and belgians german as well then because lower saxony and north-rhine Westphalia are culturally closer to the Netherlands and Belgium than to bavaria? Is Denmark German then because Schleswig-Holstein is culturally closer to it than to bavaria?
What about Luxembourg?
well I guess that's entirely your right, just know that it's exactly what I see of you
I don't know how true that South thing is, but I'm not going to press it. I just want to know, how the heck have the early 20th century immigrants "destroyed the country" at the same time the US thrived in a way it had never before. Your argument just doesn't make any sense.
>Are dutchies and belgians german
You could say so, and that they are just a subset of Low Germans
>Is Denmark German
No because they speak a Norse descended language
>Luxembourg
Not really as sure, but internet tells me it’s Germans who got Frenched
I can view Americans as aliens, still doesn't make it correct
They turned it into a mongrel country that lacks culture
I can view myself as a 13 year old Icelandic fisherman, but that doesn’t make it correct.
But according to you it’s for me to decide and you have no right to say otherwise
>No because they speak a norse descended language
German descended from Norse as well.
Good to see you're agreeing with me then
>Austrian Education
You’ve officially lost all credibility
What? We never really had culture, did we? What was our culture, John Stuart Mill? And, who cares about a homogenous culture? What form of morality, what way of looking at the world says, "I don't care about whether people are having better lives or whether the country is stronger, but about having a homogenous culture"?
he's a different poster
13 colonies weren’t homegenous, there were Germans, Dutch and French.
They just weren’t pussy leaching immigrants
Tell me then, what did German descend from? Celtic? Raeto-Romanic? Because those are the langues that used to be spoken in Austria before germanic tribes, which by the way had their origin in Denmark/Northern Germany, settled down and genocided the local populace.
AnotherInteresting information for you on the side, if standard German hadn't completely replaced Northern german dialects they'd still be mutually intelligable with the Danish dialects close to the border. But hey, that looks to me as if both Danish and German descended from a different language
Anyways, im out now.
>what did German descend from?
Proto Germanic
as of 2016, the majority of people living here born overseas are english, 36% of us identify our primary ethnicity as english, with another 33% identifying as australian (almost certainly majority english anyway). 11% are irish, 9% are scottish. australia is a british, primarily english, country
correction, not the majority, but most people born overseas are english (15%)
White Australians and New Zealenders is also wrong, since a lot of them do not have a germanic origin.
People in the Netherlands were the original frogs (who live in this little cold frog country.).

Germans are Deutsch (Dutch).

You seem to have made a mistake
