Rhône-et-Loire
Rhône-et-Loire was a ''département'' of France whose ''préfecture'' (capital) was Lyon. Created on 4 March 1790 like the other French ''départements'', Rhône-et-Loire was abolished on 12 August 1793 when it was split into two ''départements'': Rhône (''préfecture'': Lyon) and Loire (''préfecture'': Feurs, then Montbrison, then now Saint-Étienne). The division of Rhône-et-Loire was a response to counter-Revolutionary activities in Lyon which, by population, was the country's second largest city. By splitting Rhône-et-Loire, which was the natural economic and, potentially, military hinterland of Lyon, the government sought to protect the French Revolution from the potential power and influence of the counter revolutionary revolt in the Lyon region.
In the 19th and 20th centuries, the Rhône ''département'' was enlarged several times by incorporating into it areas from neighboring ''départements'', so that today the two ''départements'' of Rhône and Loire combined are larger than the former Rhône-et-Loire ''département''.
If Rhône-et-Loire still existed, its population at the 1999 French census would have been 1,799,812 inhabitants, whereas in 1999 the Rhône ''département'' had 1,578,869 inhabitants, and the Loire ''département'' had 728,524 inhabitants.
