As we have seen the name "America" derives from another name, "Armorica" --- a sea-faring Celtic people who populate the south side of the extreme western side of Normandy jutting out into the English Channel and catching the end results of the Gulf Stream. One can scarcely imagine a more balanced or pleasant natural environment and climate than they enjoy.
The French Armoricans are "Normans" no less than William the Conqueror (Guillaume de Jus) and are famous sailors; as far back as the end of the Ice Age they established contact with their English neighbors in Northumbria, and from Northumbria throughout central and western England. By Roman times, Armoricans and their more land-lubbing relatives to the East who became Kings of Gaul, had established firm covenants and contracts by marriage allowing them to peacefully trade and live in a broad swath of England running across Northumbria and down through the Midlands to Somerset and from there to Exeter and Glastonbury and the southern seaports.
The path of this Armorican/Norman "invasion", which took place at least three thousand years ago and has endured into modern times, provides a direct overland trade route from Spain and Portugal and North Africa to Exeter and through the Midlands to Northumbria and from Northumbria to Armorica and Normandy. When Julius Caesar invaded Britain he found this trade route and its well-heeled beneficiaries firmly ensconced; he established a trade and benefit alliance rather than fight with them, and built a Roman road system all along the Southeastern and Southern Coast of Britain to benefit their trade route and related shipping. This, in turn, provided a supply chain for the Roman Garrisons all the way to Londinium and beyond.
These are known facts. Nobody even cares to argue about them. You can trace the Roman road system to this day and parts of it are still exposed. So why wasn't Julius Caesar pushing inexorably westward? Why were friendly local "Legions" being raised? Why would he invest in a road system in the South of England? Why not rely on a straight from the west approach that he already controlled?
Because Caesar was already allied with and benefitting from the central and westerly kingdoms of the Norman-British occupying this central trade route.
It was through his family ties to these same Armorican/Norman interests throughout the backbone of England that William the Conqueror claimed to be the rightful King of England, and the reason that Edward the Confessor agreed with him.
This is what we mean by not forgetting your history.
This was the European side of the Armorican story, but being sailors, these Norman French people regularly hob-knobbed with the Danes and the Norsk and the Swedes and the Scots and Greenlanders and found their way to North America, where, once again, they made friends with the people they found living there and formed trading alliances, thus opening up the European markets to American furs and lumber and foodstuffs in competition with some of their more northerly European neighbors.
Many Armorican sailors maintained homes in the native style, which were simpler, faster to construct, moveable, and non-invasive. As they were actually friends and not viewed as invaders, they easily adapted to native traditions and to the polygamy of the tribal nations, maintaining families in "Armorica" as well as Europe.
It was this polygamy that prompted the Church to send Missionaries; fearful that the practice of polygamy would spread in Europe and end their Marriage Monopoly, the Church came down hard on the Armoricans and their scholarly Albigensian cousins who were massacred at the same time (but more famously) than the Armoricans, who either stayed and towed the line in Europe or fled to the arms of their waiting wives and children in what was becoming known as "America" in England.
"America" is just a British mispronunciation of "Armorica".
They naturally dropped the "r" and slurred over the "o" so it came out phonetically as "America" in English
This affiliation stands in the DNA of so-called "Native Americans" people who come from all over the world originally, but settled here, and is also witnessed in the fact that the North American tribes were already resistant to European germs and unlike many more remote South American tribes, had gained a modicum of immunity to European diseases before Columbus ever fetched up in the West Indies.
This is only possible as a result of long term interaction and intermarriage of two widely separated populations, and this is precisely what we find between the Armoricans and the Mik Maks and Algonquin and Iroquois and Chippewa and Delaware and Lenape and virtually all tribes on the Eastern Sea Coast and spreading Westward to the Cherokee, Nez Pierce, Winnebago, Lakota, Mandan, Ojibway, Ute, Shoshone, and many other Native Nations.
All that is typically remembered about any of this today is a vague and brief reference to French Fur Traders and Jesuit Missions in America prior to the so-called French and Indian War; we are encouraged to just skip over hundreds of years of this history and fed nonsense about "America" being named after an Italian mapmaker named "Amerigo Vespucci".
Far more likely, "Amerigo" was the child of an Armorican Mother and Italian Father.
So this country, and in the most general sense, the people inhabiting North, Meso, and South America, were named after these sea-faring Frenchmen --- and, we know where we got the name "America", but where did the earlier version, "Armorica" come from?
From the Trojans. "Arh - mo - ryk - in" is the same word that gives us the word "armor" and "arm" and even "amour" --- the French word for love. And why is that? Because as ferocious as the Armoricans and their kin, the Albigensians, were as soldiers, they were known to conquer by love.
They formed friendly and mutually beneficial trading relationships with the people they "conquered", they formed communes, aka, communities that welcomed the poor, the unwed mothers, the sick, and those left alone in life, and they married their trading partners in joint pacts ensuring the peace between their families----and other than self-defense, they had no interest in war. They would rather make love and enjoy the peace.
It was their model of social caring that was the template for the whole Commonwealth system that the Roman Catholic Church later adopted, and which the British Government in turn impersonated and used as a storefront to sell its endless colonialist activities.
The traditional customs and values of America, such as the equality of men, the sanctity of families, the love of freedom, the code of personal bravery, the assertion of natural rights, the respect for individual privacy and ownership interests, the focus on mutually beneficial trade, the famous American Isolationism which has held aloof from European intrigues, all of this and more can be traced back to the Armoricans forging friendships, trade agreements, and blood treaties with all the other people they encountered.
Today, we call everyone from North and Meso and South America by the name "Americans" and we think nothing of it. It's such a grab-bag of associations, such an endless melting pot of nations and people originally from all over the world, that we forget our roots and traditions and why love is a predominant theme in our government and our worldview.
It's time to remember why Philadelphia, our actual Capitol, is called by a name that literally means "brotherly love"?
All the internecine battles and misrepresentations we have suffered at the hands of our British and Holy Roman Empire Subcontractors have resulted in our country and our people being blamed for their sins, as they have pretended to be us and to represent us --- while in fact only representing their own avarice, elitism, violence, and greed, their own prejudices, hypocrisies, and narrow self-interests.
Anyone can look and see how this country and its people have been abused and used and misrepresented for over a century and a half.
"Manifest Destiny" wasn't an American idea, and neither was Teddy Roosevelt with his Big Stick -- all that came straight out of British Imperialism, and no wonder, as these men were working directly for and with the British Monarchs and the British Crown, and under color of law and in the interest of their own "National Security" were intent on promoting British Imperialism and Colonialism by any other name.
Even Corporate Feudalism.
When you say, "American", you shouldn't be associating it with any of these things. Genocide, meanness, small-mindedness, cowardice, dishonesty, greed, fraud, force, meddling, impersonation, violence, unfairness, all the hallmarks of the criminals ---- these aren't part of our custom, culture, or tradition, but they are part of the British Bully Syndrome and the "Glories" of Rome, that we would all rather forget.
The member nations of the United Nations would be well-served to remember the history we remember.
