Germanic actually, as much as I appreciate the lebensraum it was fucking Celtic before and if the Celts were as cool as the Romans made them out to be it's a net loss. Plus if the Celts weren't dead the Germanic could have stayed in Scandinavia and never been tainted with race-mixing

Yeah? So did FDR, and he did so without deliberately having people starved to death.

Again, Roosevelt and Churchill both did this too.
