I know that a thread on this was done in 2007 but that was a long time ago so I presume that everone is ok with me doing a new thread on the same topic?
Topic: What do you think would have happened to Britain if there had been no Anglo-Saxons-Jute invasions of Britain, thereby leaving OTL England Brythonic in the Early Middle Ages?
My Opinion: I see OTL England and Wales (what are we going to call it) be ruled by an evolving patchwork of different warlords, perhaps whose lands slowly amalgamate into larger Kingdoms, not unlike OTL saxon England. How much would the Viking invasions be different? My idea is that the Norse will the North, though how Norsefied it will become, I don't know. Perhaps OTL Southern England, Dumnonia and everywhere West of the Seven will remain brythonic. They will probably regain the land from the Norse.
Beyond then: no idea
What do you think?
