Initially named the department of Bresse, the territory took the name of Ain in 1791 as part of the eradication of toponymic references to the Ancien Régime during the French Revolution. The department of Ain was one of the 83 departments created during the French Revolution, on Mars 4, 1790, in application of the law of December 22, 1789, from four provinces: Bresse, Bugey, Dombes, the country of Gex and part of the province of Franc-Lyonnais. Bresse, Bugey and the Pays de Gex were administered according to the customs of Burgundy since their cession by the Dukes of Savoy to France in 1601. From 1791 to 1793, the nine districts (Pont-de-Vaux, Bourg, Nantua, Gex, Belley, Saint-Rambert, Montluel, Trévoux and Châtillon-les-Dombes) of the department of Ain provided twelve battalions of national volunteers. The country of Gex was separated from it from 1798 to 1814 when the department of Léman was created. In 1815, as compensation for the occupation of the Geneva region, six communes of Ain (Collex-Bossy, Le Grand-Saconnex, Pregny, Vernier, Meyrin and Versoix) were ceded to the canton of Geneva. After the coup d'état of December 2, 1851 by Napoleon III, Ain was one of the departments placed in a state of siege in order to prevent any mass uprising. Less than a hundred opponents were arrested. Six communes in the South-West of the department, in the suburbs of Lyon, were attached to the Rhône in 1967 during the creation of the urban community of Lyon: Rillieux, Crépieux-La-Pape, Genay, Montanay, Sathonay-Camp, Sathonay-Village.Professional in the sale (and passion) of historical and geographical engravings, I will ship your purchase with the greatest care as I myself would like to receive it.
