No...France was known as Gaul when the Romans invaded Europe. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GaulMany French people still have names related in some ways to the days of Gaul. President De Gaulle possibly one of them  |

Sorry i meant that gaul was where france is now. Ceasar put an end to them though. The series Rome told a decent enough story about the invasion of gaul. oh and it wasnt just france they covered it was Austria, Switzerland parts of germany and north italy, though the romans did have different names for each part of Gaul.  |

As the Kraut said (  ) Calling someone a Wap/Wop/Waap etc is not racist as it is not singling out their race as such which is white/caucasian. It is singling out and insulting their nationality. It is some other kind of 'ism' but not racism. Jingoism? Probably not but it's the best I can come up with. |

Not forgetting Belguim, the British Isles, northern Spain & Portugal, the Balkans and parts of northern Turkey. |

I know you fascists like to rewrite history to suit your own agenda, but Gaul is not the same as Galles as in Pay de Galles, French for Wales, or indeed Gaelic. |

I think you'll find that that I am right in that the common celtic culture extended to all the areas of modern Europe that have been mentioned. |

The spread of common culture, doesn't mean they are the same people, or that there have been mass migrations of people throughout prehistory. It's a bit like saying the English and Indians are the same people because they share a love of cricket, curry and democracy. |
