Is Albion still perfidious?

just curious. And no, non-google search engines aren't allowed either.

No, I've never heard that word before.

 

[T3C]

[Platypus]

yep

 

[Ikonomi]

I know what "perfidious" means, and is that a reference to DAOC? I don't really know. I used to play, but that was years ago.

This was a funny caption, which I had to google before understanding.

Apperantly "perfidious albion", meaning traitorous england, is how the french refered to them at some point in the past...

I don't know what perfidious means, but Albion was a pretty fun game back in 1995 or whenever it was released.

Same here.

 

[Medea]

Wasn't it a term used to describe Judas? I'm supposing that it has something to do with betrayal.

 

[monk3y]

No clue at all...

 

[TheChort]

i imagine it can be broken down to per+fidelity
So is it "with significant other" or "responsible"?

 

[dug777]

yes

 

[Hayabusa Rider]

Perfidious Albion.

Yep, and I know where it came from.

What do I win?

 

[Mucho]

Yeah, I know what it means but I can't seem to remember the references for it. Basically it means treacherous England and I've read that at least a couple of times somewhere, but cannot pinpoint the books. I've read a lot of historical fiction and I'm sure it's from one or two of these books.
