A person can be British, in which case they are a Briton

You can have a British car but only British people are Britons.

It gets more complicated in history as Britons referred to the Celtic people of Britain, as opposed to the Romans, then later the various other peoples who made up the rich tapestry of Middle Ages Britain: the Anglo-Saxons, the Vikings, etc. It’s why the British Isles includes Ireland because the Insular Celts were once all Britons.

We are all Britons. And I am your king.

I refuse. I refuse to be Briton and I refuse you as my king.
Did you thought I would let it pass just because you have cake day? No sir, no…

The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I am your king.
