The Celts is a civilization introduced in Civilization V: Gods and Kings.

The Celtic tribes of Europe, celebrated today as the ancestors to millions throughout the world, were one of history’s greatest ancient societies. Said to have developed from the early Iron-Age cultures of Central Europe, the Celts grew to become a diverse, yet formidable, society made up of hundreds of individual tribes spread across the continent. Thriving throughout the better part of the 1st millennium BC, the Celts eventually became embroiled in a number of fearsome conflicts with the unrelenting Roman Empire, who would come to suppress, but in many cases adopt, aspects of the Celtic culture during their conquest of Europe.

Leader: Queen Boudicca (c.61 AD)[edit]

Boudicca, legendary warrior queen of the Celtic Iceni tribe, is noted in history for decimating a number of Roman settlements while leading an uprising of Celtic tribes against the might of the Roman army occupying England in the 1st century AD. Historical records from this period are limited, however, and rely mainly on the reports of Roman historians Tacitus and Cassius Dio.
