Dutch language From LoveToKnow 1911 DUTCH LANGUAGE. When the Romans reached the territory now forming the kingdom of Holland , they found a number of tribes south of the Rhine , who - though here and there mixed with Germans - belonged to a non-Germanic race, and who, closely related to the Belgian tribes, spoke a language belonging to the Celtic group. Possibly they were also situated on the more elevated grounds north of the Rhine, at least vestiges of them may still be traced. We do not know anything about their being mixed with or subdued by the intruding German tribes. We can only guess it. At that time the fertile delta of the Rhine was already occupied by German tribes who in language and national customs must have stood in some relation to the tribes living along the Rhine in Germany , later called Franks Utrecht and South Holland , and the south-western part of North Holland . When in the sixth century allied tribes from the present north Germany, who named themselves Saxons of ter one of those tribes living alongside the Elbe , conquered the territory occupied by the Franks a great many retreated from the eastern parts, and then the Franks, who already in the time of the Romans had begun to invade into the territory of the Belgian tribes, continued their wars of conquest in a southward direction and subdued all the land south of the branch of the Rhine that is called the "Waal." Since that time the Frankish
