2,500 Years of English History - Explained Fast

This is not exactly math or physics, but I thought my readers would like it, and it does relate to my earlier posts about DNA. In fact, it was my DNA analysis that led me to research this.

500 BC
The Celts show up from Central Europe and bring the Iron Age. They occupy all of England.

500 YEARS LATER
The Romans arrive and the Celts scatter to Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and the far tip of Cornwall.

500 YEARS LATER
After making absolutely sure the Romans have gone the Anglo-Saxons invade.

250 YEARS LATER
The Viking take a shot, but their invasion and occupation is limited.

250 YEARS LATER
The Normans mount their famous 1066 invasion and bring the Cross Bow and Garlic. This is the last time England is invaded.

1,000 YEARS LATER
Ken Abbott does DNA test and discovers he's from the original Celtic invasion.
