The Galician diaspora is the ethnically Galician population outside of Galicia. The concept does not usually include the ethnic Galicians who live as natives in Spain or the adjacent country of Portugal.

Massive emigration of the Galician people occurred during the last three decades of the 19th century until well into the mid-20th century. Between 1850 and 1960, over two million Galicians emigrated to America. This phenomenon had a significant impact in the socio-economic, political, and cultural contexts of both territorial Galicia and the Galician diaspora.[2]
