  Gascony - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Novempopulana suffered like the rest of the Western Roman Empire from the invasions of Germanic tribes, most notably the Vandals in 407-409.
In 416-418, Novempopulana was delivered to the Visigoths as their federate settlement lands and became part of the Visigoth kingdom of Toulouse.
Novempopulana then became part of the Frankish Kingdom like the rest of southern France.

 Gascony - HighBeam Encyclopedia
Under the Romans the region was known first as Aquitania Propria and later as Novempopulana or Aquitania Tertia and was inhabited by the Vascones, or Basques, who since prehistoric times had lived in the lands N and S of the Pyrenees.
Conquered by the Visigoths (5th cent.) and by the Franks (6th cent.), Novempopulana was invaded in turn by the Basque-speaking peoples (the Vascones) from S of the Pyrenees, who in 601 set up the duchy of Vasconia or Gascony.
The duchy's borders fluctuated as the Basques fought the Visigoths, the Franks, and the Arabs throughout the Merovingian period.

 Gascony - LoveToKnow 1911
It takes its name from the Vascones, a Spanish tribe which in 580 and 587 crossed the Pyrenees and invaded the district known to the Romans as Novempopulana or Aquitania tertia.
Basque, the national language of the Vascones, took root only in a few of the high valleys of the Pyrenees, such as Soule and Labourd; in the plains Latin dialects prevailed, Gascon being a Romance language.
In the 7th century the name of Vasconia was substituted for that of Novempopulana.

 Aquitaine - LoveToKnow 1911
In keeping with the Roman policy of denationalization, the term Aquitania was extended, and under Augustus it included the whole of Gaul south and west of the Loire and the Allier, and thus ceased to possess ethnographical importance.
In the 3rd century A.D. this larger Aquitania was divided into three parts: Aquitania Prima, the eastern part of the district between the Loire and the Garonne; Aquitania Secunda, the western part of the same district; and Aquitania Tertia, 'or ' Novempopulana, the region between the Garonne and the Pyrenees, or the original Aquitania.
In the 5th century the Visigoths established themselves in Aquitania Secunda, and also in parts of Aquitania Prima and Novempopulana, but after the defeat of their king Alaric II.

 Virtual Rome | North | Viennensis | Aquitania
During the 3rd century AD the original Aquitanian tribes, now reduced to 9, were detached to form the separate province of Novempopulana, based on Elusa (eauze), later superseded by Civitas Auscorum (Auch).
The province of Aquitania now lay to its north, and in the later empire was subdivided into Aquitania Prima and Secunda, with their capitals at Avaricum and Burdigala.
Soon after 400, however, this situation was transformed by the invasions of the Visigoths, who in 417 were recognized as a federate state in Aquitania Secunda (together with parts of Novempopulana and Narbonensis Prima); a proportion of the Roman properties in the area came under their control, and they replaced Catholocism by Arianism.

 Aquitaine - Gurupedia
When Clothaire II died in 629, he divided the kingdom of the Franks and gave Aquitaine to his son
Charibert, who set up his capital at Toulouse and strengthened his claims by marrying Gisela, the heiress of the Novempopulana; however, Frankish control was never very secure; they were primitive by comparison and had only the most rudimentary sense of urban life and the res publica.
