The Franks and the Germanii were both Teutonic tribes, so I doubt they can tell the difference. Pretty much all Northern Europe was Teutonic except for the Celts and the Basques.

"Pretty much all Northern Europe was Teutonic except for the Celts and the Basques."

What would be the classification for people in Italy and Spain, prior to the Celts moving into the neighborhoods?

Similarly, there were people in Britain before the Celts and later germanic people sailed across (Picts, pre-picts).

Finally, Polish, Slovak people are Slavic, are they not? Baltics, too.

What I'm trying to demonstrate is there were/remain others besides just Germanic and Celtic.
