The Celts lived all over Europe: but in the successive waves of invasions - the Romans, and after the fall of Rome a whole series of barbarians - they were driven further and further West, until the remained clinging to the edge of Europe in what is known as the Celtic fringe: Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Cornwall, Brittany. The Celts lived in central Europe: northern France, part of Holland, Belgium, England, and parts of Switzerland. These lands had long been settled by the warlike Celts. Soon after 500 BC, the Celts wandered east and west in search of fertile farm land. Around 390 BC, the Celts even invaded Rome and sacked the city. It took two hundred years for the Romans to drive the Celts from Italy.
