OK, it's just to have fun that I start this one... And maybe out of some nostalgia ...
I can't say I have criteria for this one, Antonio !
Sorry, Hans, I didn't want to open one more during the August break, but, well, this is not a very "strategic" one .
I hope Kalwejt will join us again...
I hope Hashemite will enjoy it, for the reasons we all know .

In case of a tie, previous votes will decide which Province is eliminated. In case of a new tie, I, Duke of this survivor, will decide.

ROUND 1 IS OPEN !

In this round, you have 6 points to cast 3-2-1.
We'll eliminate the Province which receives the biggest total of points.

Vote away !

2 to Comté de Nice
(small, minor, recent French territory)

(never really France... and not a strategic territory after all, except for one man)

[big bad fab]

Mmmm... Not a great success, eh ?

Oh, you're not obliged, Edu... That's really difficult for you or any other foreigner without interest in French history or geography.

[Bunwahaha [still dunno why, but well, so be it]]

Why taking old ones!!

I would have been more interested, and especially more knowledgeable, about one with current territories, well, here, I could just vote vote according to geographical criteria, not historical ones, or really not much. So if the point of this survivor is more about the culture/politics/society of these provinces on this epoch than about what they geographically are, better I don't vote maybe.

You tell me.

You tell me.

In fact, you can take every criterion you want.
But if you aren't so much interested, I think I'll drop this one.
We'd have too low a turnout.

I'll open a survivor on French cities or regions and I'll tell you.

A survivor on the regions would be awful because the regions are artificial creations which make no sense and are pure creatures of French centralism. I don't even think I'd vote in such a thing.

3 Comtat-Venaissin

Or, you can do all you can to save the only real regions: Corse, Alsace, errrr... yeah, it's a bit short

OK, I hope you'll follow us until the end.
So, I keep this survivor: round 2 will be for tomorrow.

Well, we have had a long debate about it one year ago, and other times too, we won't run it again, I partly disagree on some things, partly agree on others here.

About something on current regions, no matter how the one can see them, that are existing territories that we can qualify and judge. Then a survivor on them could be relevant.

Though in term of French geographical survivors, which are some in which I'd be interested, maybe most people could agree on the fact that one on Départements and one Villes could be interesting.

I'd be glad to participate in one, but don't expect me to lead one.

[Bunwahaha [still dunno why, but well, so be it]]

Let's vote in that one though :

Corse (go away!) 2
Roussillon (go to Cataluna!) 1

Save:

Savoie (indeed, I'm French because it is)

Oh, I know.
I haven't taken an option on any of it, but, after my next Chinese, British and Swedish ones (see stickied thread), I'll probably do some French ones if nobody has done them then.
Régions, Départements, Communes > 80,000 would be fine.
