Galicians (Galician: galegos [ɡaˈleɣʊs]; Spanish: gallegos [ɡaˈʎeɣos]) are a Romance-speaking European ethnic group [7] from northwestern Spain; they are closely related to the northern Portuguese people[8] and has its historic homeland in Galicia, in the north-west of the Iberian Peninsula.[9] Two Romance languages are widely spoken and official in Galicia: the native Galician and Spanish.[10]
