Bretons Traditional Breton symbols and/or symbols of Brittany include the national anthem "Bro Gozh ma Zadoù" based on the Welsh "Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau". The traditional motto of the former Dukes of Brittany is "Kentoc'h mervel eget bezañ saotret" in Breton, or "Potius mori quam fœdari" in Latin. The "national day" is observed on 1 August, the Feast of Saint Erwann (Saint Yves). The ermine is an important symbol of Brittany reflected in the ancient blazons of the Duchy of Brittany and also in the chivalric order, "L’Ordre de l’Hermine" (The Order of the Ermine).
