Hello,
I wonder what the world knows about Bretagne/Breizh/Brittany ? History, culture, anything you know please share.
>Also, old photographs are welcome, I will drop some here
Only the flag, that you drink beer, are devout Catholics (at least in Camp des Saints), and that you're Celts
I made you independent a few times while making mememaps for my autistic pleasure but thats it.
You are kinda celto-french people and used to be very superstitious with a lot of very old and odd little traditions that got lost I once heard.
Also nice flag.

There are still superstitious people. For example on the 15th of August every year, there are processions to every port to bless the boats for the year.

I can't really, even my grandfather only knows few words or expressions. it's been forbidden in the early 20th century, as well as euskadian, corsican and others, in order to unify the different cultures with a common language

Thats more of a nice tradition then an outright superstition imo.

you're probably right.
Bretons really love the sea most of the times, and those who don't love land. They're no recorded starvation in Breizh History as except for sea activity, the economy is based on agriculture and pork since very long.
About the Sea, do you guys know about Robert Surcouf ? He was born in Saint-Malo, and actually something he did was stolen in the movie "Masters and Commanders". He was one day pursued by two american large fregates, and he finally dropped them with a leurre. The character of Russel Crow is majorely inspired by Robert Surcouf, which has upset many people here as in the end the french are the bad guys.

Traditionally monarchist, proud descendants of Nominoe, played both sides in THYW, strong naval traditions, great folk music.
I listen to Tri Yann and Stivell almost every day, even visited Saint-Malo once. Should probably make a Bretaboo pasta about myself.
My first gf and only person i ever loved is from there...
She's no longer with me and she been dating another guy
Life has lost much of it's already dying enchant
Girlfriend issues aside i think it's one of the most beautiful places i've ever been ad the people are very nice
However, i will never be able to go back there because everything related to breizh makes me think of her and it gives me physical pain
I may dump some photos i took while i was there

I found it nice that bretons are really obsessed with the sea. I found it funny because even tough we are known for being great sailors, most people in Portugal aren't that big fans of the sea.
I like the sea but i prefer the mountains and forests

They vote leftist because they don't have too many Muslims. Other than that, they're good people.
