Irish Gaels

The Irish Gaels are a group of people originating from Ireland who speak the Irish language (Gaeilge) and share cultural traditions rooted in Gaelic history. Historically, they were Celtic tribes that dominated much of Ireland before the influence of outside powers like the Normans and English. Today, the Gaels are associated with promoting Irish language, music, dance, and customs. Their identity emphasizes a connection to Ireland’s ancient heritage and Gaelic roots, which distinguish them within Irish society and among the broader Celtic communities in regions like Scotland and the Isle of Man.
