Foreigners from Sedan? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

danes

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'foreigners' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'from sedan?' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates an anagram (from the letters).
'sedan' with letters rearranged gives 'DANES'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for danes that I've seen before include "More than one member of kingdom" , "Vikings" , "people in Copenhagen" , "E.g. Hamlet and Canute" , "Scandinavians" .)
