The Pays de la Mée ((:pɛ.i.də.la.me))) (Breton: ''Bro-Vaez''; Gallo: ''Paeyi de la Mée'') is a historical region of France which was part of the Duchy of Brittany before the French Revolution. It was then split between Loire-Atlantique and Ille-et-Vilaine department. Its capital is Châteaubriant, and the dialect traditionally spoken there is the Gallo language. ==Geography==
The area lies on the eastern border of Brittany, facing Anjou (nowadays Maine-et-Loire departement). Most of the territory is part of Loire-Atlantique, but several villages in Ille-et-Vilaine are usually included in the Pays de la Mée. Moreover, its limits are not very clear; for example, Candé, a small town in Anjou, was named ''Candé-en-la-Mée'' during the Middle Ages. The landscape of the Pays de la Mée is hilly because it is on the eastern extremity of the Armorican massif. The ground is mostly made of schist and contains small amounts of iron ore, particularly exploited during the 19th century. The area is also crossed by several small rivers, such as the Don, and watermills used to be numerous. The area is mainly devoted to agriculture, especially cattle breeding.
