Comments: Auxerre is a county less than a hundred miles southeast of Paris along the Yonne River. In Celtic times the home of the Senones, after Caesar's conquest it became a district of Gallia Lugdunensis. Overrun by the Burgundians in the late 5th century, it passed to the Franks in the following century, and later formed part of the Carolingian Empire, being incorporated into Ducal Burgundy, from which the county was created by the 11th century. The province is under the Ecclesiastical authority of the Archbishop of Sens . There is some banking, trading, and manufacturing in the larger towns, and the countryside around the cities is quite fertile.
