The Romani (also spelled Romany; /ËroÊmÉni/, /ËrÉ-/), or Roma, are a traditionally nomadic ethnic group, living mostly in Europe and the Americas and originating from the northern regions of the Indian subcontinent, presumably from where the states Rajasthan, Haryana, and Punjab exist today.
Spain is home to one of the largest communities of Romani people (commonly known by the English exonym gypsies, Spanish: gitanos). The Spanish Roma, which belong to the Iberian Kale subgroup (calÃ©), are a formerly-nomadic community, which spread across Western Asia, North Africa, and Europe, first reaching Spain in the 15th century.
