The Celtic nations are territories in Northern and Western Europe where Celtic languages or 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. It is not synonymous with "sovereign state".
The six territories recognised as Celtic nations are Brittany (Breizh), Cornwall (Kernow), Wales (Cymru), Scotland (Alba), Ireland (Éire), and the Isle of Man (Mannin). Each has a Celtic language that is either still spoken or was spoken into modern times.
Territories in north-western Iberia—particularly Galicia, Northern Portugal and Asturias; sometimes referred to as Gallaecia, which includes North-Central Portugal—are sometimes included due to their culture and history. Unlike the others, however, no Celtic language has been spoken there in modern times.
Before the expansions of Ancient Rome and the Germanic tribes, a significant part of Europe was dominated by Celtic culture.
The words Celt and Celtic (also Keltic) can refer to:

Lyrics Below/ Geiriau isod. Enjoy! Mwynhewch! NOTE: Song Re-uploaded as original video creator Alba12349 is removing his account. SONG OF THE CELTS There's a blossom that blows, that scoffs at the snows, And it faces root-fast the rage of the blast. It sweetens the sod no slave ever trod Since the mountains upreared their altars to God. CHORUS: The flower of the free, the heather, the heather, The Bretons and Scots and Irish together, The Manx and the Welsh and Cornish forever, Six nations are we, Proud Celtic and free. Our blossom is red as the life's blood we shed For Liberty's cause against alien laws When Lochiel and O'Neill and Llewellyn drew steel For Alba's and Erin's and Cambria's weal.
