Brandenburg is probably an Israelite name, by the way, of the tribe of Dan.

Aw, that's pure poppycock. The name Brandenburg is derived from "Brennaburg" or "Brennabor" wich was originally a town of the Slavic tribe of the Hevelli. It was captured by the eastern Frankish king Henry I in 928.

Gosh, where do you have all this nonsense from or do you make it up yourself?

Calm down, I said "probably". Do you know what "probably" means? Terrill's right. You people are extrememly emotional over this. Why are you so insulted to be considered Israelites? The letters DN occur too many times and in a narrow line across Europe to be a coincidence. You don't know which ones are and which ones aren't derived from Dan though. Maybe you're right but it's been my experience that place names have a lot of legends surrounding where they came from. Look at America. Some say it's from Amerigo Vespuci, some say it's other stuff, who knows about any individual name. People who write that stuff just put something down to make everyone think their smart, they didn't really know. But DN happens too often to be a coincidence.

Do you believe everything you read? Do you ever think for yourself?
