Celebrating the CELTIC HERITAGE of the CELTIC NATIONS

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

The Celtic nations are a cultural area and collection of geographical regions

in Northwestern Europe where the Celtic languages and cultural traits have survived.

The term nation is used in its original sense

to mean a people who share a common identity

and culture and are identified with a traditional territory.

The six regions widely considered Celtic nations are

Brittany (Breizh), Cornwall (Kernow), Ireland (Éire),

the Isle of Man (Mannin, or Ellan Vannin), Scotland (Alba), and Wales (Cymru).

In each of the six nations a Celtic language is spoken to some extent:

Brittonic or Brythonic languages are spoken in Brittany, Cornwall, and Wales,

while Goidelic or Gaelic languages are spoken in Scotland, Ireland, and the Isle of Man.

Before the expansions of Ancient Rome and the Germanic and Slavic-speaking tribes,

a significant part of Europe was dominated by Celtic-speaking cultures,

leaving behind a legacy of Celtic cultural traits.

Territories in England Cumbria, Devon, north-western Iberia—

particularly northern Portugal, Galicia, Asturias, León, and Cantabria

(together historically referred to as Gallaecia and Astures),

covering north-central Portugal and northern Spain—

are considered Celtic nations due to their culture and history.

Unlike the others, however,

no Celtic language has been spoken there in modern times.
