History of Galician
Galician and Portuguese were originally one language (Galician-Portuguese) - the language of medieval troubadour poetry. They diverged as Portugal became independent. Galician was suppressed under Franco but revived after democratization. Today it's co-official in Galicia and shows Celtic influences unique in the Romance world.
