How to get an annual berth in greece in a municipial harbour?

As its thought by some, the first settlers in Ireland came from Britain I would have thought they crossed at the shortest sea route, possibly Mull to Antrim,

We're a bastard race, in more ways than one. Early settlers likely came from Britain and Western Europe. Then there was a big influx of Turkish farmers followed by Russians. Even the great man himself, who we'll celebrate next week, probably came from "that place".

And of course Russia is named after the Rus people, who were Nordic (aka incorrectly referred to as Vikings) Varangians. It’s all pretty complicated.

Don't think Trump did, to be POTUS you have to come from the USofA

History is complicated.

I think the Scoti / Scots actually came from Ireland, not what is now Scotland.
The Angles / English were Germanic, not from what is now England
The "English" kings spoke French for centuries, and some spent little if any time on what is now Britain.

And when the Saint Marina was in what is now Turkey, that was centuries before Turkey existed. Indeed it may have been in an area ruled by Hellenic / Greco / Romans (who all got rather intertwined and confused as well).

That is correct. Initially they came from ireland. But they moved to what is now scotland, and then the name stuck for that region.

Sort of like the normandy is named after the normanns (a variation on the name for vikings), who came from scandinavia and just settled there, which then gave the area that name.

They're not originally from there, same as the scoti, yet they settled there and the rest is history.

Anyway. Wasn't this thread about greece or something?

Forum rules. Any question can be answered by post #20. Thereafter we should be able to drift the thread until reach Mornington Crescent

May God forgive you for such sacrilege

I know the Moderators are omnipotent, but do you refer to them as “God” now?
