This map illustrates the administrative and geopolitical situation in Roman Gaul two centuries after the Roman conquest, which began with Julius Caesar's campaigns (58–51 BCE), bringing the region under Roman control. By 200 CE, Gaul was fully integrated into the Roman Empire and divided into provinces such as Gallia Narbonensis, Gallia Lugdunensis, Gallia Belgica, and Germania Inferior and Germania Superior, which flanked the Limes Germanicus, the fortified frontier along the Rhine River.
