Nearly spat my dinner out, when asked about Scottish Independence, as I have advocated for years the sooner England gets its independence the better, and we would most definitely hang on to Eire/Ireland. I love your capacity to articulate the dynamics of history. There are so many things that happen, with their own time lines to create any one scenario in all stories, and in particular how history is or has been generally taught. Your dissecting and weaving of these different stories into a relatable historical period, reminds me of Tolstoy......but with a guid sense of humour. Another A+ on the report card Bruce.

Though it's probable that disease to some extent opened up the land to invaders. Plague is believed to have come from the southwest i.e. the Roman Empire, with the invaders coming from the east and much less severely hit by it. The early warrior invaders would have been short of women. Servants, serfs and slaves are valuable assets. Also taking children to raise as part of your own tribal group helps too more quickly replace the inevitable casualties. I'd say large numbers of surviving Britons stayed put. They were subsumed into the new dominant culture as most American Natives are today outside of the reservations. Further south from an Angle, Saxon and Jute perspective Scotland, Wales and Cornwall would be the equivalent of reservations (no pejorative meant they represent the limit of the power of the invaders). Celtic strongholds also existed in the English Peak and Lake Districts for awhile. When the Norse came to England they being of such a close linguistic and cultural group in large areas must simply have became, Norman like, overlords and did much less displacement of populations. Once again locally becoming the dominant culture and able to control such things as place names but eventually subsumed like the were Normans in their turn into what was to become English culture as must the Angles in Scotland have been into Scottish culture. But all groups will have left their contribution to some aspect of future culture. So the Scots (not Gaelic that's Irish) language probably has foundations that predate Modern English and is influenced by Modern English rather than being a dialect of Modern English

Surely anything in Britain, in Europe even, between 410 and King Offa 350 years later was so chaotic and the written accounts so unreliable that we can only guess at what really happened. The fundamental idea of a European civic society was reinstated with the coronation of Charlemagne in 800- just in time for the Vikings to arrive in continental Europe. Even in the 12th century, absolute chaotic breakdown could come back at any time, in a way that didn't even happen in the wake of such catastrophes as the Black Death, the Thirty Years War or World War II. We may see those days again, as our basic social ties and institutions weaken.

Love yer stuff Bruce - I live in Alnmouth but I was born in Perth (!) lived in Aberdeen , Edinburgh and Glasgow not necessarily in that order so I know a good spectrum of Scotland, I have been to The Hebrides Orkney and the Northwest . I see you walking on one of our beaches - it's lovely. I am going to have to watch mair ae yer vids as they are captivating and here I am at nearly 11pm! All the best to you and yours.
