Under this account, the name "Montargis" is supposed to derive from the Latin mons argi.

Numerous Gallo-Roman artifacts have been found in the area, and many are in the town's Gâtinais Museum.

According to the French Constitution, "French" is a nationality, not a specific ethnicity. Alain de Benoist's Nouvelle Droite movement, quite famous ...
