There have been people living in Europe since the Stone Age; there is ton of evidence and arqueological sites spread all across Europe. This upper-palaeolithic culture is dated to be 40.000 years old: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aurignacian You also have these two well known locations: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skara_Brae and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stonehenge, which are about 5.000 years old. You should also read about the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corded_Ware_Culture which are 5000 years old. They were spread across much of Europe and there were massive graves found in all Scandinavia; they were nick named the Battle axe culture because of the large amount of axes found in that region. Since the ancient greece is so important for Europe you can read about these cultures these: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aegean_civilization http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mycenaean_civilization. They are more or less 3500 years old.
Europeans began to leave their lands due to the tyranny and oppression of their own political and social systems i.e. feudalism under the royalty, nobility, and priests of their nations.
Also because the Ottomans had closed the Silk Road and the spice trade with the East was ended. So they set to explore another route to resume comerce and they ended up discovering the Americas. After the first explorers returned to Europe with all kind of fabulous stories, many people decided to try their luck in the new world.
and what you need to do is understand where the term 'bastard' came from. the question of the thread ask's where would your people go back to, as in your birth place and you have not answered that. THis is why i asked you what you meant by thousands of years and all you do is come back at me and tell me to read this and that which tells me that you have no clue just like the rest of your people as to where you come from!
Ive already answered this...europeans come from Europe! You asked, then I gave you information about various european peoples being in europe for thousands of years, and now you are telling me that is not good enough for you. Just exactly what do you want me to tell you?
