The Six Nations Championship (referred to as RBS 6 Nations for sponsorship reasons), was known before 2000 as the Five Nations Championship, and is an annual international rugby union competition involving six European sides: England, France, Ireland, Italy, Scotland and Wales.

The winner of the RBS 6 Nations is sometimes seen as being the European Champions.

The Six Nations Championship, with its predecessors the Five Nations and the Home Championship, is the premier international rugby union tournament in the Northern Hemisphere.
