	Clinton Goveas :: Wikipedia Reference
		From the outset of the reign of Charles the Bald, the integrity of Anjou was seriously menaced by a two-fold danger: from Brittany and from Normandy.
		The principality, which he thus carved out for himself, was occupied, on his death, by Erispoé, duke of Brittany; by him it was handed down to his successors, in whose hands it remained until the beginning of the 10th century.
		All this time the Normans had not ceased ravaging the country; a brave man was needed to defend it, and finally towards 861, Charles the Bald entrusted it to Robert the Strong, but Robert unfortunately met with his death in 866 in a battle against the Normans at Brissarthe.

	Celt : search word
		For other uses see Celtic (disambiguation).'' In ancient times, the Celts were a number of interrelated peoples in central Europe sharing a branch of Indo-European languages indicative of a common origin.
		Today, "Celtic" is often used to describe the people and their respective cultures and languages of several ethnic groups in the British Isles, the French region of Brittany and the Spanish region of Galicia.
		However, there are valid linguistic reasons for classifying the languages of Wales, Scotland, and Ireland with those of Brittany and of historical Gaul and Galatia, and Celtic has been adopted by linguists as a term of convenience, since the Celtic nations did not have a standard umbrella term for themselves.
