Pages 56 and 57 in particular show the close connections between LangdOc, the south of what is now France, and Italy, both linguistically and especially culturally. It took The French (i.e. the Normans from the north of What is now France, whom the southerners called Francais) nearly a century to subdue and connect the regions to the kindgom of France. Wiping out the Cathars to do so (which apparently started and continued in Bulgaria, under the Byzantine empire in the 10th century...).

Excellent maps at the end of the book.

que se prueban sus vinos afrutados y espiritosos, trago a trago.
Desde la llanura del Languedoc, vibrante de calor, hasta la vega
del Garona, suave y risueña, acariciada por el húmedo aliento del
océano cercano, desde los rudos contrafuertes pirenaicos hasta los
montes cubiertos de bosque de la montaña Negra, el país cátaro,
encrucijada de caminos, ha sabido conservar su alma intacta.… (altro)
