Rätoromanen#
Rhaeto-Romans, Romanised descendants of the Raetians: Grison Romans in Grisons (Switzerland), the Ladins in South Tirol and the Friulians. They still speak old dialects (Rhaeto-Roman language derives from Vulgar Latin) and practice ancient customs and traditions. Some Rhaeto-Romans lived in Vorarlberg (Montafon) and the western part of Tirol until the 17th century.
