Nice chart.

AfaIk, the Langobards were known for their long beard, not their abnormally long ears.

Anonhistory, the artist, draws G*rmanics as elves on account of ~~it's cute~~ them both being dirty forest creatures.

It was more a joke about the chart titles Langoeard, not the cuteness of their faces.

What are Gurmanics?

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Germanics are the tribes which lived in or came from roughly what-is-now Germany.
