	Albion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Albion (in Ptolemy Alouion), is the most ancient name of Great Britain, though sometimes used to refer specifically to England.
		The name is perhaps of Celtic origin or older, from the Proto-Indo-European root that denotes both "white" and "mountain", but the Romans took it as connected with albus (white), in reference to the chalk "White Cliffs of Dover", and Alfred Holder's Alt-Keltischer Sprachschatz (1896) unhesitatingly translates it Weissland ("white-land").
		From the fact that there was a tribe called the Albiones on the north coast of Spain in Asturias, some scholars have placed Albion in that neighbourhood (see G. Unger, Rhein.

	What is the "perfidious Albion"?. Thanks in advance \| Antimoon Forum
		Many people are unaware tha that "New Albion" is the name that Sir Francis Drake gave to present-day San Francisco when he landed there and claimed it for England in 1577.
		I don't think that perfidy is a typical English (or British ?) trait, or do you guys who see us from the outside think otherwise?
		By perfidious = treacherous the aristocratic Marquis of Ximenez perhaps meant that Britain did not support the French Revolution (or the American one!), whose aim was to liberate mankind!

	THE BRITISH TRADITION (Uri Dan and Dennis Eisenberg) April, 1998
		Oh perfidious Albion is how the French would describe British Foreign Secretary Robin Cook's blundering efforts to lay down the law to the Israeli government Rajah-style, visiting the natives in their primitive land during his visit to Israel this week.
		He clearly gave the impression that he had been infected by the firmly entrenched three-headed virus of the British ruling class: arrogance, appeasement and distaste of Jews.
		The "perfidious Albion" comment clearly should be aimed at the Foreign Office in London.

		You will have understood that he is a gentleman in the true sense of the word, who, marked by his nostalgia for the British Empire, considers Margaret Thatcher an amiable leftist and Tony Blair a dangerous revolutionary.
		Not to mention the perfidious pleasure he often took in greeting French visitors at London's Waterloo Station, his favorite station for such receptions.
		Henceforth, while his charming wife Carrie continues to accumulate golf trophies, he can devote his leisure time to comparing the gustative merits of various brands of hamburgers.

	British Nazis gaining in popularity : Fool Moon
		Albion is an old name for Britain I think.
		About the common currency, I think it’s a good way of projecting power in the world so I am in favour of it.
		Because Britain kept changing our allies in Europe to balance whoever happened to be topdog on the Continental mainland, we got a reputation for changeing sides, being untrustworthy allies; in short being perfidious.
