Because there was no single British race.

Where did anglo-Saxons come from?

Kna The Angles, a tribe from what is now Denmark, and the Saxons, from a nearby area in what is now Germany, and the Jutes, from Jutland, invaded what is now England in the 5th Century and displaced the vestiges of governmant of Roman Britannia. All three groups spoke closely related Germanic dialects and a common language eventually developed among the various kingdoms they created. That language is now called Anglo-Saxon, and the term is also used to refer to the people who spoke that language and to distinguish them from their later conquerers, the Normans under William.

Who were the angles and Saxons?

Anglo-Saxons is the term usually used to describe the invading tribes in the south and east of Great Britain starting from the early 5th century AD, and their creation of the English nation, lasting until the Norman conquest of 1066. The Benedictine monk, Bede, identified them as the descendants of three Germanic tribes:The Angles, who may have come from Angeln, and Bede wrote that their whole nation came to Britain [3], leaving their former land empty. The name 'England' or 'Ænglaland' originates from this tribe. [4]The Saxons, from Lower Saxony (German: Niedersachsen, Germany)The Jutes, from the Jutland peninsula.The Angles and Saxons were closely related, and spoke different dialects of Ingweonic (North Sea German). They could probably understand each other, but probably made fun of each other's accents like the present-day Norwegians and Swedes. Neither could understand the Jutes, who moved south and mixed with Franks in Hannover before moving to Frisia. Chances are they had trouble understanding the Frisians too.

How did the ideas of social Darwinism help revive assumptions of superiority of the Anglo-Saxon race at home and abroad?

Social Darwinism used the concept of "survival of the fittest" to justify racial superiority, arguing that certain races were more evolved and therefore more fit to dominate others. This led to the resurgence of beliefs in the superiority of the Anglo-Saxon race, both domestically and internationally, as a way to justify colonial expansion and reinforce existing power structures.

What race were the serfs?

There was no special race of serfs. In the event of a recent takeover by outsiders, the serfs where of whatever the previous group had been. For example, after the Normans took England from the Anglo Saxons, the serfs were all Anglo Saxon. Aside from that, there was often no distinction. German serfs were German, as were their rulers, for example.
