Provinces of France before 1791
Provinces and Governments
In 1789, there were three kinds of
administrative divisions in the Kingdom of France.
The dioceses were ecclesiastic divisions, which
dated back to the Roman times. Roman Catholicism was
the official religion of France, which was known as La
Fille Aînée de l'Eglise ("The Church's
Elder Daughter"), following King Louis XIII's vow.
The provinces were military gouvernements
(governments), mostly established in the 14th
century. By the law of 18 Mar 1776 their number was
fixed at 39 of which 32 were grands grouvernements
(greater governments) and 7 were lesser ones or petits
grouvernements enclaved into the greater
ones. Smaller feudal divisions remained as
subdivisions of the governments. They were called bailliages
(bailiwicks) in the north of France, sénéchaussées
in the south-west, and vigueries in Provence.
These are not covered in this record.
The généralités (generalities)
and the intendances (intendancies) were
financial divisions, mostly established in the
XVI-XVIIth centuries. An intendance was the
territory administrated by an intendant, who was the
direct representative of the King. In 1555, the first
maîtres de requêtes, later renamed intendants,
were appointed. The intendants were the most powerful
people of the kingdom after the King himself, and
their position was often dynastic.
The borders of the different divisions
did not match each other. This lack of unity was
caused by the heterogeneous historical formation of
France. The kings progressively incorporated to their
own domain (domaine royal) large feudal and
princely states, whose institutions and privileges
they promised to respect. Some provinces (Brittany,
Provence, Béarn) recognized the King only as their
Duke, Count, or Lord. Several of these states kept
their political institutions (Etats [states])
and administrated taxes. As an example,
Provence, incorporated to France in 1481, kept its Etats
in Aix-en-Provence and had a specific "Provencal
Constitution". Provence was divided into vigueries,
but its two main cities, Arles and Marseilles, had a
specific status of terres adjacentes à régime
spécial ("adjacent areas with specific
regime").
As explained by Alexis de Tocqueville
in "L'Ancien Régime et la Révolution" (1856),
"the administrative centralization was an institution
of the Ancient Regime and not a realization
of the Revolution and the Empire, as often wrongly
assumed." As direct representatives of the Kings, the
intendants gained more and more power, whereas the
military governor's function became purely honorific
as early as in the 17th century. At that time,
Richelieu, one of the great reformers of the French
state, believed that powerful military governors were
more a threat than a protection for the royal power,
and ordered the demolition of most fortresses located
quite far from the borders. In parallel, Richelieu
consolidated the power of the intendants, which was a
convenient means to collect taxes from reluctant local
lords and thereby consolidate royal power.
The tax status of the provinces was
also complex, at least nominally: in the pays
d'élections (most provinces), the taxes were
administered in each circumscription, called élection,
by local representatives, called élus; in the
pays d'Etats (Bretagne, Bourgogne, Béarn,
County of Foix, Languedoc, Provence and Dauphiné), the
taxes were administered by a provincial assembly, or Etats
(States). Some former feudal states, although no
longer governments, kept their States, e.g. Gévaudan,
Velay and Vivarais. Of course, the King did not enjoy
those States, who often opposed to his decisions, and
progressively suppressed them or diminished their
power; in the pays d'imposition (Flandre,
Artois, Lorraine, Alsace, Franche-Comté and
Roussillon), which had been incorporated in the 17th
to the 18th centuries, there were neither élections
nor états, and the taxes were administered
directly by the intendants.
The governments were formally abolished
1 Jan 1791. (2 or 3) denotes a second or third order
government, all the others are of the first order.

Generalities
The first generalities (généralités)
headed by an Intendant were created in 1542. At first
these were a kind of financial assistant to the
governors, but later their power was gradually
extended and from the reign of Louis XIV they became
the real heads of the regional administrations, being
styled Intendant de Justice, Police et Finances.
At the end of the ancien régime there were 34
generalities. Some Intendants functioned until the
newly created departmental institutions took over
(somewhere between Jun and Oct 1790) while others
resigned or fled after the revolution in 1789. Note:
the frontiers of the generalities and of the
governments were not always coextensive.
