Norman is it’s own thing, but I’d say it depends on where they hail from. If they’re Normans from England or Normans from Ireland or France, it makes a difference.
Normans typically come from northern France.

They were Scando vikings (Norway and Denmark) who attacked France so much that the king was like "Fuck it, just take this part and leave us alone".

Then the Normans attacked England in 1066 lol

Yeah I’m aware of the history. After Rome and persia, my next favorite topic is the Anglo-Saxons

Normans left very little genetic impact in England. To the degree that that can be certain, that is

True, like I was telling Commie Boy, there's virtually no genetic difference between Normans and Anglos.

Northwest Europe was one big rape, conquer, repeat fest that all opposing factions basically became one.

The Vikings founded Dublin, Ireland for example. That's how intertwined we were.
