When the arrondissements were created on 17 February 1800, Mirande was one of them in the Gers department.[1]

Geography

It is the southernmost and the smallest of the arrondissements of the department, with an area of 1,686.1 km2 (651 sq mi).[2] It is also the arrondissement with fewer people living there, with 37,945 inhabitants and a population density of 22.5 inhabitants/km².[3]

The arrondissement is bordered to the north by the Auch and Condom arrondissements, to the southeast by the Haute-Garonne department, to the south by the Hautes-Pyrénées and the Pyrénées-Atlantiques departments, and to the west by the Landes department.

Composition

Cantons

After the reorganisation of the cantons in France,[4] cantons are not subdivisions of the arrondissements so they could have communes that belong to different arrondissements.

In the arrondissement of Mirande, there are two cantons where not all their "communes" are in the arrondissement: Astarac-Gimone and Fezensac. The following table shows the distribution of the "communes" in the cantons and arrondissements:
