Today the Basques are divided between France and Spain. The French Basque Country is included in a broader French region while in Spain there is a region called Basque Country (whose official flag you posted) and Navarre.
Basque is a language isolate. Dozens of theories have been proposed to explain it´s origins and relate it with other tonges (from Iberian to Japanese, but also Georgian or Ancient Aliens stuff) but with little success. The only confirmed related language is Aquitanian which is considered to be Proto-Basque.
Basques already inhabited both sides of the Pyrenees when the Romans first met them and they seem to have accepted Romanization without much trouble. But when the Empire´s might faded Basques reapear again in the sources.
They appear as warriors facing Goths and Franks with varying degrees of success and failure in the next centuries.
When the Arabs reach Northen Spain they found Basques there, as usual. Mulsim grip over the Ebro basin affects local Basques, while the "Atlantic" ones side with the newborn Christian states.
That dichotomy will lead to the birth of a kingdom in Pamplona, whose Basque name literally means "city".
It´s unclear when the Basques became Christianized, a first wave should have came during Roman Times but historians still discuss about when and how did Basques became Christians.
I may write something more later.

They are not indo-europeans, and are so probably the closest thing to what the native Neolithic Europeans would have been like.
They are also super into berets for some reason.
Noah Gonzalez
There's nothing notable about them. They're basically just people who've minded their own business for 20,000 years.
