Do english people look different than <span title="Scotland/Ireland/Wales/Cornwall?">Scotland/Ireland/Wales/Co...</span>

Question

Okay the way I see it is that Celtic people live in Scotland, Ireland, Wales, and Cornwall, while the rest of Britain should have Anglo-Saxon a lot.

So do they look different?

I already know that red hair is more common in the celtic ones.

Do Scotland/Ireland/Wales/Cornwall look pretty much the same, compared to England? I think England itself has different genetic regions per geography, so do different parts of england look different?

I can't tell europeans apart very well if at all.

I don't know everybody's genetic origins and they'd probably be mixed anyways.

Answer 1

Of course they do The Scots are far better looking than the others and much more interesting to talk to, the others are drab in comparison. Ten points please. Thank you.

Answer 2

&gt;&gt;&quot;while the rest of Britain should have Anglo-Saxon a lot.&quot;

If this was so, then the genetic makeup of the English would be very similar to the people who live in North West Germany and Flanders today, since the Anglo-Saxons came form here. The truth is that, the English are some where in between Germany and &quot;Celtic&quot; Britain in terms of their genetic makeup. As seen here-

Answer 4

While researching my husband&#039;s line, it was thought they were Welch.. With the new DNA testing, researchers have found lines from Scotland, England, Ireland and Wales.  All look the same, no distinctive features to make any of them stand out.  And we found our line isn&#039;t Welch even though the last name suggests that it is

Answer 5

Thh history of the British Isles including Ireland is one of a series of invasion , conquest and assimilation dating away back to the 6th century BC . The Celts spread out from Central Europe ( Austria / Switzerland into Italy France , Spain and eventually Britain displacing the indigenous nomadic peoples  . The Celts were not a single tribe but a group of tribes and occupied land from the south of England  right up to Caithness and Orkney and Ireland . Linguistically we can

trace back  as their language can be divided into what is called P Gaelic and Q Gaelic .

The &quot;Q&quot; Celtic group includes Scots Gaelic, Irish Gaelic and Manx Gaelic and the other encompasses and Welsh, Cornish, Basque  and Breton - the so-called &quot;P&quot; Celtic group. While speakers of the Scottish, Irish and the Manx versions of Gaelic can communicate quite readily with each other they cannot converse with speakers of the other Celtic languages.

The Celts were driven to the &quot; fringes &quot; of the British Isles with the subsequent invasions of Angles , Saxons , Danes , Vikings etc etc  What is interesting is the dominance of blood group O in these  &quot;fringe&quot; areas . Very complex to be specific because of intyerr marriage .

Answer 6

I&#039;m sorry that I can&#039;t anser ur question specifically but no one answered...

but you can tell europeans apart in groups.  For example, you know whether they&#039;re scandinavian or celtic or slavic but not the specific countries because the groups of countries have very similar genes.  Wherever the languages are similar so are the people.  But people that have lived in their own countries many years can tell the specific countries apart.  If English people have different genes than irish, scott,etc. then I guess you could.....But either way they look more like those other people you mentioned because they are their closest relatives.

Answer 7

Ia this referring to the appearance of people. If so, people from the United kingdom generally look the same unless, their families are originally from another country.
