	Couserans - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the Middle Ages, Couserans was not affected by the Cathar heresy, unlike the rest of southern France, and in the 16th century the bishops of Saint-Lizier successfully fought against Protestantism.
		At the initiative of a representative of Pamiers (largest town in the County of Foix), Couserans was joined with the province of County of Foix to form the Ariège département.
		Couserans has suffered tremendously from rural exodus in the 20th century, and is now left with only 21,260 inhabitants, 44.6% of whom live in the urban area of Saint-Girons (which includes Saint-Lizier).

	The history of St-Lizier in the Ariège Pyrénées (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		The Couserans was attached to the Comminges, which belonged to the Aquitaine.
		In 1910 the Bishop of Pamiers became responsible for the Couserans and Mirepoix.
		Disappointment: the Couserans was joined with the comté of Foix to form the department of Ariège and St-Girons was chosen.

	County of Foix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The County of Foix was an independent medieval fief in southern France, and later a province of France, whose territory corresponded roughly the eastern part of the modern département of Ariège (the western part of Ariège being Couserans).
		During the Middle Ages, the county of Foix was ruled by the counts of Foix, whose castle overlooks the town of Foix.
		In 1790 it was joined with Couserans to form the département of Ariège (see Couserans article for a full explanation).

		Couserans (pronounced in French language) (Gascon : Coseran, pronounced) is a small former province of France located in the Pyrenees mountains.
		In 1180, the viscount of Couserans was created and given to Roger of Comminges, brother of Count Bernard IV of Comminges, thus separating Couserans from Comminges, and reverting to the Roman situation when there was a Civitas Consorannorum (Couserans) distinct from the Civitas Convenarum (Comminges).
		Today, Couserans has no official status, although the arrondissement in France of Saint-Girons (one of the three arrondissements of Ariège) is what matches best the old province of Couserans.

		Their appallingly aggressive city driving standards on the narrow valley roads is yet another source of resentment for local Couserans.
		Our next stop in the Couserans was over the Col de la Trappe at Aulus-les-Bains, a former spa village now more geared to the lucrative winter ski trade.
		The storms followed us over to the western valleys of Couserans; the roads were littered with tree debris brought down by the violent gusty winds.
