      France
      Primarily located in: France
      Also found in: Luxembourg, Spain, Switzerland
      Our France region is known for both the splendor of Paris and its picturesque countryside of plains and rolling hills checkered with fields and hedgerows. Evidence of human life in France, including the stunning galleries of Stone Age paintings in Lascaux Cave, stretches back long before recorded history. Today?s French are mostly urban dwellers and can trace their roots to several key groups who made their way into l?Hexagone starting about 2,500 years ago.

      Life in the Stone Age

      Evidence of human life in France, including the stunning galleries of Stone Age paintings in Lascaux Cave, stretches back long before recorded history. But the French can trace their roots to several key groups who made their way into l?Hexagone starting about 25 centuries ago.

      La Gaule

      From their homeland in what we now call Austria, Celtic tribes had spread across most of western Europe, including the region we now call France, by 450 B.C. Romans called the area Gaul. Gaul?s Celtic inhabitants were farmers, skilled metalworkers, and traders who belonged to tribes ruled by a council of elders with a king or an elected ruler and a priestly class known as druids. Many lived in large, fortified villages the Romans called oppidum.

      These inhabitants were formidable warriors, whom the Romans and other military powers often hired as mercenaries?when they weren?t busy fighting them themselves.

      Caesar Crushes the Celts

      Between 58 and 50 B.C., the Romans invaded Gaul, where conflict with the Celtic tribes was a chronic problem. The Celtic chieftain Vercingetorix led a union of tribes against the invading Romans but was defeated at the Battle of Alesia in 52 B.C. by Julius Caesar. Rome annexed Gaul into the Republic, and the Gauls mingled with the Romans to form a Gallo-Roman culture that adopted and adapted the language, customs, government, and religion of the empire. Many generals, and even emperors, were born in Gaul or came from Gallic families. The Romans? ?vulgar Latin? (common speech) became the basis for French.

      Franks in France

      The Franks conquered northern Gaul in 486 A.D. Over the course of almost four centuries, a string of Frankish kings, from Clovis to Charlemagne, expanded Frankish control over much of Western Europe, including almost all of France and most of today's Germany, Austria, and northern Italy.

      In 843 the Treaty of Verdun divided Charlemagne's empire among three of his grandsons. Charles the Bald got the western portion, Western Francia, which, along with parts of the middle kingdom, would become France.

      Roman influence had already led to the development of Old French. Clovis?s conversion to Christianity and Charlemagne?s being crowned ?Emperor of the Romans? by Pope Leo III cemented the central place of the Catholic Church in French history and culture for more than a millennium.

      French Heard ?round the World

      France played a direct role in English history with the Norman invasion of 1066. Efforts to establish a colonial empire took French language, French culture, and the Catholic Church to North America, the West Indies and French Guiana, Africa, India, and Asia.
