Nicknames
The Insulamia national football team is popularly referred to by the nickname The Engles (French: Les Angles), after the colloquial term referring to English Insulamians. The name is in contrast to the nickname The Frenchies (French: Les Franchiers), a colloquial name for French Insulamians that also refers to Insulamian rules football players. These names come from the fact that Insulamian rules football originates in French Insulamia and that association football is more popular in English Insulamia.
