I have a question regarding the French use of the term commune.
I first read of the French use of the word commune with respect to the Paris commune of 1870. That commune as I understood it was based on specific revolutionary beliefs and arose when Prussia defeated France in battle. But so many other things are called communes in Paris. The region you toured outside of Paris is, apparently, a commune.
You write that a commune is one of the smallest political- geographic entities in France. As I read that, any small entity can therefore be a commune. I am sort of confused. I hope I am not a pain by posing so many questions.
This is fun and interesting isn’t it? You should continue to get out more. Why do I need to get a clickable link emailed to me every time I want to comment on here?
