A Short History of Narbonensis[]
Narbonensis was established as another Gallica Province. It has the long name of Gallia Narbonensis which comes from the name of its first Military Base in the city of Narbo (Narbonne), which was the first capital of the Province. After the Aquitanian expansion, Narbonensis became part of Aquitania along with the Provinces of Gallia Lugdunensis and Belgica. After the Frankish Revolution the people of Narbonensis chose their independence from both Aquitania and from Francia. No records of Governors from beofre the independence of Narbonensis in 1029 (276 AD) from Aquitania survived these wars and revolutions. Narbonensis was dominated by the family of General Amphion Praetextus who led the fight against Aquitania.
