		First, a distinction needs to be drawn between the situation of the language in Piedmont, where institutions are answerable to central government and where Franco-Provençal is, to all intents and purposes, ignored, and its situation in the Valle d'Aosta, where regional institutions have special powers to protect the minority language.
		The few surveys that have been conducted on Franco-Provençal culture and speakers have been the result of personal interest but have not been very successful because no scientific and technical support has been forthcoming.
		It is spoken alongside other languages, such as Italian and French in the Valle d'Aosta, in addition to the spoken Germanic language of the Swiss-Valais type (with approximately 1000 speakers in Gressoney-La-Trinité, Gressoney-Saint-Jean and Issime), or alongside Italian and Piedmontese in the Province of Turin.

		French poet Frédéric Mistral led the 19th-century revival of Occitan (Provençal) language and literature—the language and literature of the historical French province of Provence.

	Catalan Language
		It is particularly similar to Occitan languages and Old Provençal.
		Catalan, a language spoken by a population of around ten million, is, as French, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, and Rumanian, a neo-latin language, that is, a language derived from Latin.
		Catalan is spoken mainly in the nort-eastern region of Spain (Catalonia, Valencia and the Balearic Islands), with notable encroachments in the South of France (Roussillon) and even in Italy (in the town of Alguer, on the island of Sardinia.) (see the map).

		After the fall of the Carolingian Empire, Aosta Valley became a part of the weak Kingdom of Burgundy, which included Provence and the areas where the Franco-Provençal language was spoken (Aosta Valley, Savoy, French Switzerland, Dauphiné, and the territory around the city of Lyons).
		In Val 'Aosta, French was used as a written language, together with Latin, from the 14th Century onwards and became the sole official language in 1561.
		The subsequent cultural conflicts led to language-related claims, which, after the First World War, were combined with political claims deriving from a long tradition of political particularism.
