    "Nationality and citizenship are not necessarily synonymous terms. The distinction gains importance in states where the population includes persons--citizens--belonging to various nationalities, from a historical, cultural or political perspective. One of the core elements of the sovereignty of each state lies in the definition of who its citizens are. This determination is sometimes made in the constitution itself. As a rule, this is the case when the latter has some problematic feature, such as in countries with high immigration, originating from a division of larger units, with different communities or for other historical reasons. If not in the constitution, then citizenship may be defined in federal or national laws. Each of them establishes precisely who the citizen is, in terms of birthplace, parentage or other elements and on what conditions nationality or citizenship can be acquired for other reasons, such residence in the country, their particular relationship with it, etc. "

    "The simplest view is that an English person is someone who is from England and holds British nationality, regardless of his or her racial origin. It has, however, been a notoriously complicated and controversial identity to delimit [4]. This is partially because inhabitants of England quite commonly refer to themselves as "British" rather than "English"; centuries of English dominance within the United Kingdom has created a situation where to be English is, as a linguist would put it, an "unmarked" state (i.e. a British person, institution, custom, city, etc. is often assumed English unless specified otherwise). The English frequently include their neighbours in the general term "British" while the Scots and Welsh, proud of their separate identities, tend to be more forward about referring to themselves by one of those more specific terms. Although currently a part of England, a small, but noticeable, minority of those living in Cornwall feel similarly, considering themselves ethnically Cornish first.

    English national identity is often taken to have been appropriated by far right and neo-nazi organizations such as the English Democrats and the British National Party [5]. This is expressed in the lyrics of Irish Blood, English Heart by the singer Morrisey, who was criticised as being racist when he aligned himself to the English flag in the 1990s: "I've been dreaming of a time when / To be English is not to be vainful / To be standing by the flag / Not feeling shameful / Racist or partial".

    Thus, English identity is - for better or worse - closely associated with British or English nationalism. English nationalists claim that the 'original culture' of England is comprised of legacies of Brythonic tribes of Celts and Anglo-Saxons appearing in waves of gradual migration. It also seen as being influenced by the Scandinavian legends such as Beowulf and the Norman Conquest. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicles are a common early location for English identity.

    Modern English identity is often built around its sports, one field in which the British Home Nations often compete individually. In particular the English Association football team, Rugby Union team and Cricket team often cause increases in the popularity of 'Englishness'.

    England is often called the 'non-Celtic' part of the UK, but this is increasingly seen as incorrect, many of the "English" have very strong Celtic roots, due to the numerous Celtic tribes and factions still inhabiting what is now lowland England in the 5th century. Historians are now agreeing that these were not displaced or massacred; rather, they remained, often living alongside their Anglo-Saxons neighbours and eventually absorbing their culture and language over time."
