Aren't the Occitans themselves descended from the very same Gauls mixed with some Germanic (and possibly Roman-Italian) elements? Didn't they simply spoke a differently distorted version of Latin? Don't misunderstand, I'm absolutely pro Occitania and contra official French oppression of different languages and cultural traditions. I just don't understand the "gauling".

By the way, presenting the Hungarian-Greek Jew Szarközy as a Gaul is more than absurd.

About Sárközy, you may add his wife is Italian and still, despite all this mixed blood and cultures in and around him, the man is fiercely and blindly French that anything or anyone challenging the alleged grandeur and glory of France is perceived as a threat to its own existence as the standard-bearer of liberty. Occitans and the rest of the French citizens descending from former colonies and provinces fall into that category when they dare stand for their rights.

[AnPrionsaBeag]

As for Occitans, they're mostly earlier Latinized Celts (hence the names Provence & Provençal) & ancient dwellers (the Aquitan tongue was close to Basque). French people proper come from Holland & later moved to Franconia & Northern France. France's royal emblem, the fleur-de-lys is not a lily (as the name suggests) but an iris, which is common around Dutch river Luts (hence Old English & French fleur-de-luce where c was pronounced ts). L'Île-de-France is also thought to come from Lilde France.

Weird you didn't criticize Pompidou, the very Occitan former president of France, same for Giscard d'Estaing supposed to be from Chamalières, Auvergne, and Mitterand from Cognac gets just a little line or maybe that's because he's a Socialist...

[AnPrionsaBeag]

Adieu Auxane! There were others I could've taunted too, past and present, but all I had was three minutes and a couple of main characters to choose from. Giscard and Mitterrand are traitors to their roots, we couldn't agree more. I'm non-political: all I know is things must change now and they're not going to for another 5 long years... France is a lie!

In Toulouse I don't know but in the south of France a lot of.

[AnPrionsaBeag]

Quite a few but all are native French speakers too. Things were very different not so long ago. The imposition of the French language was somewhat brutal. From Wikipedia: "Some researchers state that up to seven million people in France understand the language while twelve to fourteen million fully spoke it in 1921. In 1860, Occitan speakers represented more than 39% of the whole French population (52% for francophones proper); they were still 26 to 36% in the 1920s and less than 7% in 1993."
