Christian outcastes (untouchables) of Europe.
Gypsies (Romas) living in Europe as untouchables for over one thousand years. Gypsies migrated from India to Europe in the middle ages. Since then they are living among Christians as outcastes (untouchables). Christians never integrated Gypsies into their European society. They forced them to live out side the cities and villages. They denied normal economic activites to Gypsies. They never inter marry with Gypsies.
There is no difference between Christian untouchables of Europe and untouchables in India. Both the groups faced similar disadvantages.
