Specifally they are Britons through to the formation of England once Roman control of released this being more the early history of the story of Britain. They aren't Irish. They aren't Scottish. They are specifically the story of the Britons more or less (with the twist of being half-elves which I believe is a TES twist to describe how England is extremely complex when trying to describe it's people and history. Also a great way to describe their pomposity. ;)
