The people of the English Midlands whose Offa's Dyke border ambition, Staffordshire Hoard golden treasure, and Industrial Revolution Black Country forge made them the most powerfully creative and most nationally central community in the heart of England.
Mercians — the people of England's midland heartland whose identity stretches back to the border warriors of the Anglo-Saxon kingdom that once dominated all of southern Britain, their descendants today inhabiting the counties of the West Midlands, Staffordshire, Worcestershire, and Warwickshire whose industrial and agricultural landscapes contain the full arc of English history from Shakespeare's Stratford to Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter to the Black Country forges that hammered out the hardware of the British Empire. The midland dialect that Mercian scribes first wrote down became the English of Chaucer and ultimately of the world, and the midland temperament — practical, unpretentious, quietly inventive — produced James Watt's steam engine, Joseph Priestley's oxygen, and the Austin motor car in a region that prefers making things to talking about making things, its contributions to civilization consistently undervalued by a national culture that mistakes London's noise for the country's substance. This interactive t-shirt connects you to that foundational legacy with a QR code linking to the full story.
