Bretagne (French pronunciation (help·info); English: Brittany; Breton: Breizh; Gallo: Bertaèyn) is one of the 26 regions of France. It occupies a large peninsula in the northwest of the country, lying between the English Channel to the north and the Bay of Biscay to the south. Its capital city is Rennes.

Language
Brittany was a usually conservative region, with the notable exception of Cotes-d'Armor, a longtime stronghold of the left. However, Brittany is slowly trending to the left, electing the first socialist in its history to regional presidency and voted for Ségolène Royal in the French presidential election, 2007 (except in Morbihan). Centrist candidate Francois Bayrou also polled relatively high in the region and Fougères elected a Mouvement Democrate deputy to the National Assembly. The region was one of the few regions to vote yes to the European constitution in the 2005 referendums.
