There is a lot of German blood in England. Even the royal family have German heritage.

They look so similar to English people too.
Yet the two countries are such enemies at sports events like the football games! Maybe we are so similar, that is what we (nationally) dislike about one another.

A lot of people with Welsh back grounds have dark features almost Spanish looking. Catherine Zeta Jones is an example of this.

Some anthropologists believe when the Moors came over to the British Isles hundreds of years ago that they mixed with the woman to not put a finer point on it 'injected' some dark features into Ireland and Wales.

A lot of Scottish people have red hair!!

I find all these things fascinating!

Churchill called Britain the 'mongrel nation' because we are all related to the many races and nations who have waged war or invaded us.

Hey Matt did you ever see Franks video of Osama falling over in his cave? Frank did it as a sketch where Osama had sent it to 'You've been framed' it was really really funny.
