Department in Brittany, France
The Côtes-d'Armor ( koht dar-mər , -dar-mor ; French pronunciation: [kot daʁmɔʁ] ⓘ ; Breton : Aodoù-an-Arvor , [ˈoːdu ãn ˈarvor] ), formerly known as Côtes-du-Nord until 1990 (Breton: Aodoù-an-Hanternoz , [ˈoːdu ãn ˌhãntɛrˈnoːs] ), is a department in the north of Brittany , in northwestern France. In 2019, it had a population of 600,582.[3]
History [ edit ]
Côtes-du-Nord was one of the original 83 departments created on 4 March 1790 following the French Revolution . It was made up from the near entirety of the ancient Pays de Saint-Brieuc , most of historical Trégor , the eastern half of Cornouaille , and the north-western part of the former diocese of Saint-Malo .
On February 27, 1990, the name was changed to Côtes-d'Armor : the French word côtes means "coasts" and ar mor is "the sea" in Breton . The name also recalls that of the Roman province of Armorica ("the coastal region").
Geography [ edit ]
Côtes-d'Armor is part of the current administrative region of Brittany and is bounded by the departments of
Ille-et-Vilaine to the east, Morbihan to the south, and Finistère to the west, and by the English Channel to the north.
The region is an undulating plateau including three well-marked ranges of hills in the south. A granitoid chain, the Monts du Méné, starting in the south-east of the department runs in a north-westerly direction, forming the watershed between the rivers running respectively to the English Channel and the Atlantic Ocean . Towards its western extremity this chain bifurcates to form the Montagnes Noires in the south-west and the Monts d'Arrée in the west of the department. Off the coast, which is steep, rocky and much indented, are the Jentilez , Bréhat and other small islands. The principal bays are those of Saint-Malo and Saint-Brieuc .[4]
Principal towns [ edit ]
The most populous commune is Saint-Brieuc , the prefecture. As of 2019, there are 6 communes with more than 10,000 inhabitants:[3]
Demographics [ edit ]
The inhabitants of the department are known in French as Costarmoricains .

Politics [ edit ]
Côtes-d'Armor's long tradition of anti-clericalism , especially in the interior around Guingamp (a former Communist stronghold), has often led to the department's being seen as an area of left-wing exceptionalism in a region that historically was otherwise strongly Catholic and right-wing. The current president of the departmental council, Christian Coail, is a member of the Socialist Party .

Culture [ edit ]
The western part of the department is part of the traditionally Breton -speaking "Lower Brittany" (Breizh-Izel in Breton). The boundary runs from Plouha to Mûr-de-Bretagne . The Breton language has become an intense issue in many parts of Brittany, and many Breton-speakers advocate for bilingual schools. Gallo is also spoken in the east and is offered as a language in the schools and on the baccalaureat exams.
