Breton

Breton is spoken in Brittany, the peninsula of westernmost France lying between the English Channel and the Bay of Biscay. It is the only Celtic language spoken on the European continent, having been brought from Cornwall and South Wales in the 5th and 6th centuries by Britons fleeing from Saxon invaders. Today there are fewer than one million speakers of Breton. It has no official status in France and even in Brittany it is not used in the schools.
