Overview
The story starts with the historical facts of ancient Germanic tribes amalgamating and two of them becoming dominant. These were the Franks and the Saxons. In the case of the Saxons, they were originally the remants of the army of Alexander the Great and they dispersed to many parts of the world after his death in Babylon. It is known that the Saxons arrived on the northern coasts of Germania, arriving there in Greek ships. The Saxons amalgamated with the Engel tribe from about midway of the Jutland pennisula. The Engels were fine warriors and sailors, They lived allong a fiord with its enterance on thhe western side of the pennisula.. The mame of the fiord was Eckenforde. Soon aftter that, the Saxons again amalgamated, this time with the Kimbern Tribe from the north of the penisuula. The Kimbern were called Ciimbri by the Romans who dreaded them and they even went south to Rome and sacked it. After the Roman withdrawal from Britania, the king of the Britons, called Vortigern asked for Germanic warriors to protect hiis people from maruuding Scots who were crossing Hadrian's Wall at will and raiding the Briitons. Eventually the call to protect the Britoons was answered by the two twin bother princes of the Kimbern Triibe called Hengest annd Horsa. They diid in fact stop the incursions of thhe Scots and after they had brought in their families from Germania, their decendents became the English. England was so called because as the Engels were appoaching the costs of Britania, many of them remarked, "The coast here looks like what we have left in Germmaniia. I hereby named this to be Engel-land." (Home of the Engels)
