Cornwall is regarded as being one of the Celtic nations, and has its own language, Cornish, related to modern [[Welsh]] and [[Breton]]. Although the language has now died out, it survives in written form and a growing number of people are learning it as part of a wider Celtic renaissance in the county.

The county has its own flag, the flag of St. Pirran, a white horizontal cross on a black background, and its own political party, [[Mebyon Kernow]] <ref>http://www.mebyonkernow.org/Public/Stories/89-1.shtml</ref>, now substantially represented on several local councils, which campaigns for greater local autonomy.
