Périgord Noir
The Périgord noir (, literally ''Black Périgord''), also known as Sarladais, is a traditional natural region of France, which corresponds roughly to the Southeast of the current Dordogne ''département'', now forming the eastern part of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine ''région''. It is centered around the town of Sarlat-la-Canéda. Etymology The name Périgord noir (black Périgord ) is derived from the dark colour of its evergreen oak forests (''Quercus ilex'') and also from the dark, fertile soil in the Sarladais, not, as is often asserted, from the black truffle. Historically, the Périgord noir was the oldest of the four subdivisions of the Périgord. Geography Geographically the Périgord noir takes up the Southeast of the Dordogne département. It is surrounded by the following natural regions: * Périgord central and Brive basin in the North * Causse de Martel and Causse de Gramat in the East * Bouriane in the South * Haut-Agenais and Bergeracois in the West.

A château (; plural: châteaux) is a manor house or residence of the lord of the manor, or a fine country house of nobility or gentry, with or without fortifications, originally, and still most frequently, in French-speaking regions. Nowadays a ''château'' may be any stately residence built in a French style; the term is additionally often used for a winegrower's estate, especially in the Bordeaux wine regions, Bordeaux region of France. Definition The word château is a French word that has entered the English language, where its meaning is more specific than it is in French. The French word ''château'' denotes buildings as diverse as a medieval fortress, a Renaissance palace and a fine 19th-century country house. Care should therefore be taken when translating the French word ''château'' into English, noting the nature of the building in question. Most French châteaux are "palaces" or fine "English country house, country houses" rather than "castles", and for these, t ...

Cantons Of France
The cantons of France are territorial subdivisions of the France, French Republic's Departments of France, departments and Arrondissements of France, arrondissements. Apart from their role as organizational units in relation to certain aspects of the administration of public services and justice, the chief purpose of the cantons today is to serve as Constituency, constituencies for the election of members of the representative assemblies established in each of France's territorial departments (Departmental council (France), departmental councils, formerly general councils). For this reason, such elections were known in France as "cantonal elections", until 2015 when their name was changed to "departmental elections" to match the departmental councils' name. As of 2015, there were 2,054 cantons in France. Most of them group together a number of Communes of France, communes (the lowest administrative division of the French Republic), although larger communes may be included in mo ...
