      The Franks were germans and one day we’ll free ourselves from “France” and re-establish Gaul

        Celtic tribes predate Germanic settlement in southern Germany and Austria as well. The Celtic culture also originates in the Hallstatt culture named after a town in Austria where salt mining has been going on since that time. The Helvetii were also a Celtic tribe in what is now Switzerland.

        Celtic isn’t Germanic, but normally gets lumped together.
