The article recounts the history of France, focusing on its early inhabitants, the Gauls, who were Celtic tribes known for their fierce independence and valor. They resisted invaders, famously sacking Rome in 390 BC under chieftain Brennus. However, their eventual conquest by Roman general Julius Caesar during the Gallic Wars from 58 to 50 BC marked a significant shift in the region, culminating in the defeat of last resistance leader Vercingetorix at the Battle of Alesia in 52 BC.
The Gauls were a collection of Celtic tribes known for their fierce independence and resistance until their eventual conquest by Julius Caesar during the Gallic Wars.
Julius Caesar's campaigns in Gaul between 58 and 50 BC marked a significant turning point, leading to the fall of the independent tribes and their integration into the Roman Empire.
