Template:Infobox Department of France Côtes-d'Armor (French) / Aodoù-an-Arvor (Breton) is a département in the north of Brittany, in northwestern France.

History

Côtes-du-Nord was one of the original 83 départements created during the French Revolution on March 4, 1790. It was created from part of the former province of Brittany. Its name was changed in 1990 to Côtes-d'Armor (ar mor meaning the sea in Breton). The name also has a historical connotation recalling the Roman province of Armorica.

Geography

Côte-d'Armor is part of the current administrative région of Bretagne and is surrounded by the départements of Finistère, Morbihan, and Ille-et-Vilaine, with the English Channel on the north.

Demographics

The inhabitants of the département are called Costarmoricains.

Culture

The Breton language has become an intense issue in many parts of Brittany, and many Breton-speakers advocate for bilingual schools. Gallo is also spoken in the east and is offered as a language in the schools and on the baccalaureat exams.
