No detailed alternate history has been developed to explain how Cumbric continued to be spoken until the present day. Such an outcome would require the existence of some kind of culturally distinct community who identified themselves as Cumbrian as opposed to (or in addition to) Scottish or English. Historical evidence suggests that a distinct Cumbrian identity continued into at least the 13th century and it was presumably the emergence and strengthening of the Scottish and English national identities as a result of continued animosity which eventually forced Cumbrians to realign their cultural affinities . | |||
