Gex () is a commune in the Ain department in eastern France. It lies from the Swiss border and from Geneva. It is a subprefecture of Ain. ==History== The town gave its name to the Pays de Gex, at various times under the jurisdiction of France, Switzerland and the Duchy of Savoy. With the 1815 Protocol of the Conference of Paris, (signed on 20 November) and the Treaty of Paris of the same date, Gex was placed in the Customs region of Switzerland and neutralised. The resolutions regarding the Pays de Gex were annulled by Art 435 of the Treaty of Versailles. In November 1923 France moved its customs office to Gex, and the matter was brought before the Permanent Court of International Justice (predecessor of the International Court of Justice), which decided in favour of Switzerland.〔(Case of the Free Zones of Upper Savoy and the District of Gex ), Permanent Court of International Justice, Parties: France & Switzerland, August 19th, 1929, Initiated March 29th, 1928〕 A compromise was reached in 1932. Historically, citizens spoke a dialect of the Franco-Provençal language. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gex, Ain」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
