    We’re what the French call “Les Tánquois” or what Cervantes’ eponymous satirical hero Don Quixote called “Los Tanqueros.” Both terms are likely derived from a proto-indo-european root that archeological linguists have reconstructed as thus: “Hdan’kwiez” a composite of two already established words “Hdan’k” meaning “to wear” or “to be armored with” and “wiez” meaning “being correct all the time.”
