Britons

[Lena]

"Interestingly I believe that the Russians often use "anglichanin" for
British, subsuming Welsh, Scottish, possibly even Irish. Correct me if I am 
wrong about this."

True!


"Britons sounds more like Stone Age ancient Britons."

Dictionaries give it as AmE, nothing about its being old :)
My students also learn it this way, now I'll make a little comment.


Thank you!
Sincerely, 

Nikolaenko Elena
