History
Ariège is a department in southwestern France, in the Occitanie region. It is named after the Ariège River and its capital is Foix. It was created from the counties of Foix (Languedoc) and Couserans (Gascogne). The department is one of the original 83 departments created during the French Revolution on 4 March 1790 under the Act of 22 December 1789. It is composed of 13 cantons, 21 intercommunalities, and 331 communes. In 2009 the Regional Natural Park of the Ariège Pyrenees was created covering about 40% of the area of the department of Ariège.[1]
