The Gallic Tribes were a collection of Celtic groups that inhabited the region known as Gaul, which corresponds to modern-day France, Belgium, and parts of Switzerland, Italy, and Germany. These tribes were known for their distinct languages, cultures, and social structures, often organized into clans or confederations. They engaged in agriculture, trade, and warfare, and were skilled in metalwork and craftsmanship. During the late Iron Age and early Roman Empire, the Gallic Tribes came into conflict with the expanding Roman Republic. This culminated in the Gallic Wars (58-50 BC), led by Julius Caesar, which ultimately resulted in the conquest of Gaul and the integration of these tribes into the Roman world.
