 Basse-Normandie - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The history of the Basse-Normandie region concerns that part of Normandy termed Basse-Normandie (or "Lower Normandy") that was created in 1956, when the traditional region of Normandy, with an integral history reaching back to the 10th century, was divided into Basse-Normandie and Haute-Normandie ("Upper Normandy").
This language is still in use today in Basse-Normandie, with the dialects of the Cotentin more in evidence than others.
Basse-Normandie suffered badly during World War II, with many of the region's towns and villages being destroyed during the Battle of Normandy.

 Review: La première Normandie (Xe - XIe siècles): sur les frontières de la haute Normandie: identité et construction d'une principauté
The early history of Normandy is a complex and well debated topic that has focussed on the survival of the Frankish institutions in the area of northern France settled by the Vikings or Northmen, and on the assimilation of those Normans into Frankish society.
The foundation of Normandy was not a sign of Frankish weakness in the face of Viking attack, but a conscious act of policy, calculated to procure the services of a military leader of proven worth, and those services were as likely to be used in internal power struggles as in repelling external attack.
The congruence of the duchy of Normandy and the archdiocese of Rouen was a product of the second half of the tenth century as the energetic society that emerged there expanded beyond the limits of the original area ceded to Rollo.
