Comments: Nice, situated on the western side of the Alps where they meet the sea, was founded by the Greeks around 350 B.C. Eventually incorporated into the Roman world, upon the fall of Rome it passed successively to the Ostrogoths, the Visigoths, and finally the Franks.

Upon the breakup of the Carolingian Empire in the ninth century, it was briefly part of Lothringia before being incorporated into Burgundy. It has been a county within the Kingdom of Arles for some centuries now.

Ecclesiastical authority is vested in the Archbishop of Emburn . There is a good deal of maritime commerce, and some agricultural activity.
