I object to the word "Germanic".

English has dominated the world for centuries and has become the most succesful language in history. So why are Germanic languages called that? Germany is a shithole that had maybe 50 good years as an empire (60 if you count Hitler). Nobody even knows the etymology of German. I propose that the word Engloid replaces Germanic in all meanings from now on.

Because it's derived from the language that the Saxons who emigrated to Britain spoke. As the Saxons were a germanic tribe with germanic customs and germanic language. But then it became extremely retarded due to the French influence.
Furthermore you are either a 6/10 troll or extremely uneducated.
The Holy Roman Empire of Germanic Nation withstand onslaught from east and west for 1000 years and Imperial Germany had a bigger economy than even the US at the time, with a good chance of winning WW1 if not for the November revolution.
