Kingdom: France

Comments: The Vivarais lies in southeastern France, up against the Rhone River. Incorporated into the Roman world more than a century before Christ, it was overrun by the Burgundians in the 4th century, became part of the Frankish Kingdom in the 6th, but upon the division of Charlemagne's Empire became part of Lothringia, and then for a time the Arelate.

It was finally united with France only in the early 13th century. Religious authority is rather confused in the county, as different portions fall under the Archbishops of Narbonne, Vienne, and Bourges. The province is primarily agricultural.
