| Qualitative Info |
Travellers is the highly segregated minority group. Most of them are French citizens but identify themselves historically or through family as Gypsies, Roma, Manouche, Sinti, Kalé or Yéniche. France designates the "Traveller" community by its mode of living and does not recognise the existence on its territory of minorities as holders of collective rights that are enforceable under its legal system.
