Yeah, Celts are true Britons. Before the Stuarts the word "British" was used almost exclusively to talk about Brittonic Celts. New "British" identity was constructed after the union of England and Scotland

@Dave-hu5hr Welsh are not Spanish, they are native Britons. Celtic culture in the iron age dispersed mostly through acculturation, and rather slowly, at least that is what archaeology shows, and the idea that Celts are from Iberia is only one and not the strongest hypothesis. Not to mention that being the most native among current ethnic groups still makes them native. It is like pathetic attempts of white Americans to say native Americans are "immigrants too" cause their ancestors migrated 30 thousand years ago (and then developed their whole cultures, languages, etc. right in America for around 1000 generations, which is certainly not the same as coming 500 years ago with pre-existing culture and language)

True, Romanovs were not Russian for a long time. Catherine 2nd was from some German state, and her husband, Peter 3, was too. And later their descendants married German princesses

Marrying a cousin once is not such a big deal. Now when they did it in every generation, that had very bad results!

@earthlingalien439 like 17th cousins? It is not "related". If most people knew their whole family tree, we would all see our parents are 5th, 7th, 10th, whatever cousins. In most cases, at least

And Romanovs were German 95-99% themselves

@lauraz2896 genetically all humans 99% similar, so ethnicity is actually culture, language and identity. A lot of aristocrats in Scotland and Wales were much more anglicised than ordinary people for a long time
