Anglo nations
Hello,
Would native speakers call the US, Canada, the UK, NZ, Australia "Anglo nations"? I saw someone used the word. And would people there, especially from England, call themselves Anglos?
Thanks!

I would say that's not a good phrase. Up until about 900 AD, the UK was predominantly Anglo-Saxon, but none of the nations are now particularly identified in that way Dave

No but, English-speaking world or English-speaking countries are familiar terms.

No, it's unfamiliar. English people generally refer to themselves as English, British or both.
