Thus it paralleled the demographic growth both of Haut-Rhin (which showed an increase of 5.3% in the same period), and, more broadly, that of Alsace itself, (which showed an increase of 6.8%).
Altkirch is the most populous of Sundgauvien communes, with 5,386 inhabitants (1999). This is followed by Hirsingue (2,057 inhabitants), then Dannemarie (2,011 inhabitants). Notably, 70% of the population is spread out among 103 communes of less than ...

Sundgau - Road Network.
Sundgau is ringed by major roads, such as the A36 motorway between Belfort and Mulhouse, and the A35 toll-road, between Mulhouse and Basle; nevertheless, the elected representatives agree that the road network is outdated. Other important roadways are the D419, crossing the region from East to West between Belfort and Basle and passing through Dannemarie and Altkirch, and the North-South D432, passing through Illfur ...

| | | | | Aedui: Encyclopedia II - Sundgau - Economy Sundgau remains primarily an agricultural region with traditional activities. Important urban centres such as the tri-national conurbation of Basle, the urbanised area of Belfort-Montbéliard-Sochaux, the Mulhouse conurbation, are nearby and are attractive as providers of goods and services. Qualifications are lower and revenues higher as a result of border area employment and its economic and social impact.
Nevertheless, Sundgau remains underequipped, notably for company startups. Although several enterprises have started during the last ten years, it is not suficiently attractive as an employment basin because of the counterattr ...

| | | | | Aedui: Encyclopedia II - Gallic Wars - Punitive expeditions The following year, 56 BC, Caesar turned his attention to the tribes of the Atlantic seaboard, notably the Veneti tribe in Armorica (modern Brittany), who had assembled a confederacy of anti-Roman tribes. The Veneti were a seafaring people and had built a sailing fleet in the Gulf of Morbihan, requiring the Romans to build galleys and undertake an unconventional land and sea campaign. Again, Caesar succe ...

| | | | | | Aedui: Encyclopedia II - Lugdunum - Founding of the Roman city In 43 BC, ten years after the conquest of Gaul, Julius Caesar was assassinated and civil war erupted. According to the historian Dio Cassius, the Roman Senate ordered Munatius Plancus and Lepidus, governors of central and Transalpine Gaul respectively, to found a city for a group of Roman refugees who had been expelled from Vienne (a town about 30 km to the south) by the Aubroges and were encamped at the confluence of the Saône and Rhône rivers. Dio Cassius says this was to keep them from joining Marc Antony with their armies into the developing conflict. Epigraphic evidence indicates Mu ...

| | | | | Aedui: Encyclopedia II - Lugdunum - Name The Roman city was originally founded as Colonia Copia Felix Munatia, a name invoking prosperity and the blessing of the gods. The city became increasingly referred to as Lugdunum (and occasionally Lugudunum) by the end of the first century AD.
The etymology of Lugdunum is not known. It is assumed to be derived from Gallic Celtic words as that was the predominant language of the region when conquered by the Romans. While dunum is a Celtic word for fort or hill, the source of Lug is unce ...

Le Mans - Motorsports.
The city is best known for its connection with motorsports. There are actually two separate racing tracks at Le Mans, though they share certain portions. The smaller is the Bugatti Circuit (named after Ettore Bugatti, founder of the car company bearing his name), a relatively short permanent circuit which is used for racing throughout the year. The longer and more famous Le Mans Circuit de la Sarthe is composed partly of public roads, which are closed to the public when the track is in use for racing, and has been host to the famous 24 hours of Le Mans sports car race since 1923.

| | | | | Aedui: Encyclopedia II - Lugdunum - Growth and prosperity in the first centuries of the Empire In the second century A.D., Lugdunum prospered and grew to a population of 40 to 50,000 persons. Four aqueducts brought water to the city's fountains, public baths, and wealthy homes. It continued to be a provincial capital with additional government functions and services such as the mint and customs service. Lugdunum had at least two banks and became the principal manufacturing center for pottery, metal working, and weaving in Gaul. Lyonnais terra cotta pott ...

| | | | | Aedui: Encyclopedia II - Lugdunum - Christianity and the first martyrs The cosmopolitan hospitality to eastern religions may have allowed the first attested Christian community in Gaul to be established in Lugdunum in the second century, led by a bishop with the eastern name of Pothinus. In 177 it also became the first in Gaul to suffer persecution and martyrdom.
The event was described in a letter from the Christians in Lugdunum to counterparts in Asia, later retrieved and preserved by Eusebius. There is no record of a cause or a triggering event but mob violence against the Christians in the streets cu ...

| | | | | | Aedui: Encyclopedia II - Lugdunum - Decline of Lugdunum and the Empire Historical and archeological evidence indicates that Lugdunum never fully recovered from the devastation of this battle. A major reorganization of imperial administration begun at the end of the third century during the reign of Diocletian and completed a few decades later by Constantine further reduced the importance of Lugdunum. This reorganization standardized size and status of provinces, splitting many of the larger. The new provinces were grouped in larger administrative districts. Lugdunum became the capital of a much smaller region c ...

Main article: Battle of Lugdunum
As the second century drew to a finish, four generals again contended for the purple. Clodius Albinus, a former legate of Brittania, had settled with his army near Lugdunum near the beginning of 195. He had himself proclaimed Augustus. Under his control, the Lugdunum mint issued coins celebrating his clemency, as well as one dedicated to the "Genius of Lugdunum".
However his remaining rival, Septimus Severus, brought his army from Italy and Germany after defeati ...
