2. Distribution of Celtic languages
Once upon a time Celtic languages ​​were spoken in vast territories of Western and Central Europe, now they are preserved only in the far west: in Ireland, Wales, Britain, Scotland.

3. History
The ancestral Celts were localized probably in Central Europe, between the Rhine and the Danube.
About the ancient stages of the development of the Celtic languages we know relatively little: the monuments of that era are very scarce and not always easily amenable to interpretation.

Lepontian language
Keltiberian (the only written Spanish-Celtic language, referring to the same Lusitanian language is controversial).
Gallic language

7. Classification
Celtic languages ​​are usually divided into ancient and Novoceltic languages: the latter are living or at least recently disappeared (Korn and Mens) Celtic languages

8. Contacts with other languages
From the earliest times the Celtic languages ​​came into contact with other languages ​​of Europe.
Celtic substratum, apparently, played an important role in the development of many Romance languages, for example, French and Italian.
Latin influenced the Celtic languages ​​in the first place: first as the language of the Roman Empire, then as the language of the Catholic Church, when Ireland was influenced through Britonian Latin.

9. Current status
Currently most Celtic speakers live in the outlying regions of Europe. There are also small colonies in America: for example, Welsh speakers live in Argentina, Scottish in Canada.
Basically the carriers are concentrated in the countryside and live compactly.
