Chapter XXVII: Section II: Kings of Arles calling themselves high Sovereigns "en

qualité d'Empereurs estimant que ce royaume a esté uny a l'Empire."

There were 254 years of this dispensation, and among these rulers occur the names of the Emperor Lothair II., Frederick Barbarossa, and so forth.

Then comes the division into "Fiefs of the Kingdom of Arles."

1st Fief. The County of Arles from the Durance to the sea.

2nd Fief. The County of Forcalquier.

3rd Fief. The County of Venaison or of Avignon.

4th Fief. The County of Marseilles.

5th Fief. The Principality of Orange.

6th Fief. "Le Dauphiné."

7th Fief. The Duchy of Savoie.

8th Fief. The Sovereign Principality of Meurgues (Monaco), the
County of Grignan, the Barony of Les Baux, of Castellane, &c.

All this wide territory constituted the ancient Kingdom of Arles.
