The term of Brit was adopted by the Americans, but not by the English or Scots or Northern Irish or Welsh themselves. It is similar to if they would call us North Americans. India and Pakistan, as the Americans do, also use this term, Brit. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternative_names_for_the_British But the Brit appellation might go away. Tomorrow, if Scotland votes for full independence. When the French and Indian War (the first truly world wide war) cranked up in 1754 in Pennsylvania (Ohio region then called) and officially in 1756, the union of Scotland and England parliaments was only barely 50 years old (despite the King holding the crown for each country a 100 years prior), we now come upon an age old call for independence tomorrow Thursday Sept 18. Most likely the vote for independence will fail. The Young overwhelmingly favor it but they dont get themselves to the voting booth like the older voters do, who will not like the uncertainty independence poses to them. https://youtube/watch?v=W6vDzf-wSbk
