The Basque Language

The Basque language, also known as Euskara, is a unique language spoken in the Basque Country, a region located in the western Pyrenees Mountains between France and Spain. The origins of the Basque language are unknown, and it is considered one of the oldest languages in Europe. Basque has no known linguistic relatives and is not related to any of the major language families of Europe. Historically, the Basques have been an isolated people, living in the Basque Country for thousands of years and maintaining their language and culture. The Basques have a long history of struggle for independence and self-determination, which has shaped their identity as a people.
