I will discuss some aspects of higher dimensional models without fundamental scalars. I will argue that these models have a rich phenomenology that include new sources of CP violation and interesting constraints on the possible patterns of symmetry breaking. I will also discuss a no-go theorem that applies to theories in 5-dimensions and possible ways of evading it in higher dimensions.
