Gaul
This term functions as both a proper noun for a geographic territory and a common noun for the people who inhabited it. When referring to the region, it is a singular entity representing a historical geopolitical area. When referring to the people, it describes an ethnic or cultural identity associated with the Celtic tribes of antiquity.
Because the word refers to a specific historical group and region, it is typically capitalized. The plural form for the people is regular, though in historical texts, the term is often used collectively to describe the population as a whole.
