The Celtic Nations

The Celtic Nations of which Cornwall, or Kernow in Kernewek the Cornish language, is one make up the six Celtic nations. Five of these form part of the islands of Great Britain and Ireland, together with the sixth Brittany. These pages are dedicated to news and information relating to these Celtic nations, containing information and links to those nation's wider Celtic heritage websites and social media.

This website is about historic, cultural and environmental heritage and does not include information or links to political parties or groups. What makes us all separate nations beyond being part of current larger dominating national borders are our national Celtic languages along with our own national historic, cultural and environmental heritage. Without our individual Celtic languages and cultural differences, that are the souls of our nations, we are nothing but an appendage to a larger nation independent or not, speaking their language and following their customs. Nationhood is more than just a line drawn on a map, it is enshrined in our national soul.
