It is made of 4 departments. Ours is in the South of Brittany: the Morbihan.

In fact, this name « Morbihan » comes from Breton language. It
means « little sea », because of the « Golfe du Morbihan », which is a
sound coming in the Atlantic Ocean.
The heart of people in Brittany is divided between love of land and
love of sea.

Seaside in Brittany
Our tradition is a tradition of sea men and farmers. Perhaps, you
know a few sea races, whose winners were often Bretons.
Eric Tabarly was a famous sea man, and his boat « Pen Duick » is very
famous too.
The attachment of Bretons to their region allows to preserve wonderful
areas.
It has also a link with a strong breton culture and a real breton
identity.
