Kulturtidskriften Café Crème Dudo, kanik och dekan vid klostret Saint-Quentin (i departementet Aisne), skrev vid 1000-talets början en krönika över de första normandiska hertigarna och hävdar att Rollo var från Dacia, vilket torde stå för Danmark. I Dudos glättade, hertigvänliga och mycket underhållande version blir händelseförloppet ett annat: Rolf är så framgångsrik i sitt erövringståg att franske kungens rådgivare uppmanar honom att sluta fördrag med vikingen. Härav uppstod ett väldigt skratt och stor oro i hopen, som Dudo påpekar. www.cafecreme.nu /18sep/rollo.html   (422 words)

Articles - Picardie Although Picardie is somewhat a stagnating région, with the industrial area of Saint-Quentin in the north of Picardie had hit by economic crisis, the south of the région, at the border with Île-de-France, is booming due to the increasing inflow of Parisians relocating to the distant and greener suburbs of the Oise département. The south of the Aisne département and most of the Oise département were historically part of the province of Île-de-France, while the Somme département and the north of the Aisne département were the province of Picardy proper. Between the 1990 and 1999 French censuses, the population of Oise increased at the brisk pace of 0.61% per year (almost twice faster than France as a whole), while the Aisne département lost inhabitants, and the Somme barely grew, at a laggard 0.16% per year. www.storegolf.com /articles/Picardie   (484 words)
