Franco-Gallia, written by François Hotman and first published in 1573, is a historical account that examines the governance and liberties of ancient France and other European regions before their decline. The work highlights the political structures of Gaul, emphasizing the role of independent commonwealths and the nobility in governance. By referencing classical historians like Cæsar and Strabo, Hotman contextualizes the division of power between the populace and their leaders, illustrating how these historical precedents shaped French identity and contemporary political thought.
