They STOPPED teaching the 🏴 ANGLO-SAXON 🏴 STORY.
Here’s a brief introduction to it. 🧵
Fifteen hundred years ago, England didn’t exist.
Angles. Saxons. Jutes. Open boats across the North Sea. They carved the island into seven warring kingdoms. ⚔️
But they built. Churches. Laws written in English, not Latin. Shires, your county was drawn by their hands over a thousand years ago.
Then the Vikings came. And nearly ended everything.
By 878, every kingdom had fallen. Every king had fled or died.
Except one. A 28-year-old hiding in a marsh called Alfred.
He fought back. Built fortified towns. Retook London. Wrote a legal code. Translated books into English.
He wanted a nation that could think, not just fight.
His daughter commanded armies. His grandson became the first King of all England. 927 AD. 👑🏴
In 1066, the Normans destroyed them. For 200 years, the English were ruled by people who didn’t speak English.
But the Normans couldn’t kill what the Anglo-Saxons built.
The language survived. The shires survived. The common law survived.
The idea that a king answers to his people.
That survived.
It became Magna Carta. Parliament. The jury. Us.
Every word you’re reading right now is rooted in Anglo-Saxon English.
Next year, England turns 1,100. Most people don’t even know it has a birthday. 🏴
We’re going deeper.
Follow so you don’t miss it. 🇬🇧🙏
What were you taught about the Anglo-Saxons at school? Or were they just… skipped?

RIP Rob Reiner. You were one of a few good men. You leave us in misery. I’m sure arrival upstairs was perfectly directed. Lights, camera, action. It’s a wrap.
