  • 878: A Tour of Viking Age Britain

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 14th 2020 11:49pm EST

    Where did England and Scotland come from? The short answer is that these nations were forged out of the fire of the Viking invasions that engulfed Britain in the 9th and 10th centuries. By the time it was over, the seven Anglo-Saxon kingdoms had become England and what became Scotland was emerging from the wreckage […]

  • Alfred the Great, Guthrum and the Battle of Edington

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 13th 2020 10:34pm EST

    Skip ahead to 27:00 in the first video. Alfred the Great was a pious Christian king. It is worth noting what he did when he defeated Guthrum and the Great Heathen Army at the Battle of Edington in 878. He let Guthrum live because he served Jesus Christ. Contrast Alfred with Donald Trump who lured […]

  • Not Angles, But Angels: Gregory the Great and the Evangelization of the Anglo-Saxons

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 13th 2020 5:45pm EST

    Is Christianity for cucks? Does it require defeat in this world? Is Christianity inherently opposed to our racial and national identity? If we go all the way back to the beginning, we don’t find this perverse worldview in the Venerable Bede’s The Ecclesiastical History of England. Quite the opposite. Gutenberg: “Nor must we pass by […]

  • Genetics and the Anglo-Saxon Migrations

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 11th 2020 8:56pm EST

    This is fascinating. Who are the English, Scots and Welsh? Did the Anglo-Saxons wipe out the Romano-British population or intermarry with them? Did the Romans or the Vikings leave behind any genetic legacy in the English population? How related are the Scots-Irish to the English? Oxford University: “The genetic map of Britain shows that most […]

  • Sermon of the Wolf to the English

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 11th 2020 1:46pm EST

    This was an amazing sermon. I found it hard to believe that I was listening to a Catholic archbishop. It just goes to show how much Catholicism has changed in tone across the centuries as it has accommodated itself to liberalism. In this sermon, Wulfstan II, the Archbishop of York, condemns the English for their […]

  • A Real Economic Meltdown: The End of Roman Britain

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 9th 2020 1:25pm EST

    Could there be a collapse of a civilization? It sounds slightly ridiculous to even type the words. Everyone knows how pointless it is to sit around and wait for the collapse. Liberals also know that civilization only progresses and history goes straight forward. Civilization has collapsed before though. In the span of a generation from […]

  • England Is Old, Very Old

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 9th 2020 1:04pm EST

    Alabama is 200 years old. My paternal ancestor came here from North Carolina around 1840. Even here in the Alabama Black Belt, the landscape is unrecognizable from what it was a century ago when the wild turkey and whitetail deer had been driven to extinction and this whole area which is now heavily forested was […]

  • The Martyrdom of King Edmund

    Occidental Dissent - Jan 8th 2020 9:51pm EST

    How would the modern barbarian defeat the mainstream conservative? The scourging and decapitation of Edmund the Martyr would be unnecessary. All it would take is to call them a mean name to get them to surrender their country.

  • Roman Britain: The Work of Giants Crumbled

    I’m continuing to brush up on British history. In this podcast, we learn about how Roman civilization collapsed and vanished in Britain between 300 and 500 AD. A key cause were the civil wars in which British governors would march on Rome with all of their troops to challenge Roman emperors for control of the […]

    The Scots-Irish came to America via Ulster from the Borderlands between Scotland and England. Before there was a Scotland and England though, the Old North was inhabited by Celtic Britons during the Early Middle Ages. Gradually, the Old North was squeezed between these two expanding power centers and became a war zone for centuries. It […]

    Occidental Dissent - Dec 28th 2019 10:48am EST

    Who created England? How was England created? Is it synonymous with liberalism? It is only due to an unprecedented loss of identity and historical memory in recent decades that such questions are even asked. From the Sack of Lindisfarne in 793 to Æthelstan’s reign as the first King of the English in 927, England (Angleland) […]

    Occidental Dissent - Dec 27th 2019 9:02pm EST

    It is the end of the year. I don’t feel like engaging much with current events. The world sucks under liberal democracy. Mainstream conservatives are pretending to oppose transgenderism to whip up their voters for the 2020 election. See the previous 75 articles on that phony culture war. Instead of tracking modern degenerates, I feel […]

    Editor’s Note: We are extremely skeptical of Boris Johnson and the Tories, but Brexit is finally happening which was the biggest issue in British politics. Unfortunately, the Tories supported Brexit largely because they want to turn Britain into some kind of free trade utopia, which will do precisely nothing to change the circumstances of their […]

    The entire history of the United States falls within the Modern era. The ethnic and cultural distinction between Yankee and Southerner can similarly be traced back to the Early Modern Era and has its roots in divisions over climate, slavery and religion. The Anglo-American founding stock came from different parts of the British Isles. The […]

    Britain is a “Nation of Immigrants.” What was it like back then when it was a “Nation of Immigrants”? You would think the English would know better from their own history than to invite foreigners to come to England to settle and take over their own country. Vortigern could be the modern day liberal.
