I am a very proud 63 years old Cornishman, from the Falmouth/Penryn are. We proper Cornish love and cherish our strong blood-ties and cultures, that are parts of the Breton/Cornish Alliance. The Breton, is our cousin. We will fight a person who speaks wrong of a the Bretons. We have, ' Deep History'. Long live Britanny and the Breton race of Celtic people.

I'm britton, i live in this place since i was born and i like the way that People from abroad talk about brittany, with such respect for her culture and history unlike few People in France who deals with britton's identity as a tiny part of france, as if this place just exist because of french's history.
Brittany contibute to the wealth of france and get the same importance as irland in this world

I’m an American who’s ancestors came from Breton in the 17th century. I found this program both informative and entertaining.

I am a Breton from Loire Atlantique (44), the Vichy regime has administratively separate my department from Brittany for economic reasons. This is unfair because my department is of Breton Culture and is part of Brittany.

Brittany has an exotic beauty all its own. I can't really compare it to anywhere else in the world. Its a different universe. It would inspire a poem or a song

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL AREA..NEVER KNEW THERE WERE SO MANY ISLANDS....

[thomaselliott]

I am glad people do not know what they are missing. It will preserve this area from madness. However I am not sure why he did not include Concarneau in this. It is a highlight of the history here.

[Burgalo]

I've heard that people from that place are very kind, sweet and generous which is opposite to other parts of France
