To be fair that is pretty much every country when you look back in history. Not trying to let the UK off the hook here though.

It’s interesting because i’m thinking of the “Norman Conquest” but you can fairly reasonably apply it to e.g the foudnation of the union (~1707) when England + Scotland became Britain, or the Roman distinction of Britannia as 1 or 2 defined provinces.
Possibly true also of angles and saxons, possibly true of celtic migration, possibly true of the pre-celtic migration…
That’s life
