I've read Bernard Cornwell's books, The Saxon Stories, which chronicle the Anglo-Saxon wars with the Viking Danes.

The stories center on the emergence of England as a nation back in the 9th century A.D., when invading Danes fought and plundered and took over most of what is now England.

Eventually, King Alfred (The Great) manages to defend Wessex in the south and unite the other regions, which ultimately become the country of England.

Looks like history was not enough to prevent the current-day Brits for fighting off and kicking out the invaders today, the Muslim hoard from the Middle East and Africa.

At one time England owned the world but historical lessons are hard-learned. Instead of fighting off the invaders this time around, England is actually inviting them into the country.

And the hoard is obliging by turning once staid England into a violent, third-world-like country, particularly in London and surrounds.

Once the camel gets its nose under the tent, it will make itself at home.

If you haven’t already, check out Cornwell’s 3-book Warlord Chronicles series, about Britons (with Arthur as one of the British warlords) trying to ward off Irish and Saxon invaders.
