'''French [[Ancien Régime]] [[Roman Catholic]] [[diocese]]s and ecclesiastical provinces''' were heirs of Late Roman [[civitates]] (themselves created out of [[Gaul]]ish tribes) and provinces.

[[Image:France ecc 1789 1802.jpg|thumb|right|450px|Ecclesiastical provinces (colored) and dioceses of France in 1789]]
==Historical sketch==
Most of them were created during the first christianization of Gaul, in the 3rd to 5th centuries.
But, at several occasions during the Middle Ages or the Ancien Régime, new dioceses were created, replacing older ones or carved out of them. For instance, fighting against the [[Cathar]] heresy entailed the creation of many new dioceses in the early 14th century. All the same, in 1789, on the eve of the [[French Revolution]], the ecclesiastical map of France still very much recalled that of [[Roman Gaul]]. This explains why many dioceses and provinces did not coincide with French borders, with their head cities lying in present-day [[Belgium]], [[Germany]] or [[Switzerland]].
The [[Philippines]] has the oldest [[hip hop]] scene in [[Southeast Asia]], largely due to that nation's historical connections with the [[United States]], the birthplace of hip hop. The Philippines is considered by many to have developed the first [[hip hop]] scene in all of [[Asia]] and the [[Pacific Islands]].
In 1790, this map was entirely revised to fit the new administrative map: dioceses were now to coincide with [[département]]s (the new administrative units). Ancien Régime dioceses all disappeared, then, in 1790. Many former bishoprics remained heads of the new dioceses, but many cities lost their bishop. Even so, in those cities, the former cathedral very often kept its rank as a cathedral church. This explains why many post-Revolutionary episcopal sees bear the name of several cities. For instance, in the département of the [[Drôme]], only the city of [[Valence, Drôme|Valence]] retained its bishop, the former episcopal sees of Die and Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteaux being suppressed, but the bishop retained the title of bishop of Valence, Die and Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteaux.
==History==
Here follows a list of Ancien Régime dioceses, as of 1789, on the eve of the Revolution. With the exception of those dioceses which were created in the Late Roman period (before the 6th century), whose date of creation generally cannot be established, we provide the date of creation and, when appropriated of suppression of the bishopric. Dioceses whose sees were not within the borders of the kingdom of France are in brackets.

===1980s: Seeds of a Movement===
The birth of Filipino [[hip hop music]] (commonly called '''Pinoy Rap''') came in the early [[1980s]], with '''Dyords Javier''' ("Na Onseng Delight") and '''Vincent Dafalong''' ("Nunal"). The genre developed an underground following during the 1980s, but soon entered the mainstream with [[Francis Magalona]]'s [[debut album]], ''Yo!'', which included the nationalistic [[hit]] "Mga Kababayan" (My Countrymen). Magalona, who rapped in both English and [[Tagalog]], became a [[superstar]] in the Philippines as a result.

[[Image:Nes1985Flyer.gif|thumb|150px|right|DJ Nasty Nes & Sir Mix-A-Lot circa 1985]]
*[[Diocese of Limoges]], out of which:
[[United States]] hip hop shares a rich history and deep connection within the [[Filipino American]] community. Filipino American hip hop culture bases its long historical roots beginning in the [[Filipino]], [[Latino]] and [[African-American]] neighborhoods along the [[West Coast of the United States|West Coast]], specifically in the Oakland-San Francisco Bay Area and [[Los Angeles]]. Since the 1990 Census, Filipino Americans have made up the second largest Asian Pacific American group in the United States (after Chinese Americans), and the largest Asian group in California. In West Coast hip hop, their role has been comparable to that of [[Puerto Rican]] artists on the East Coast, who were an integral part, along with African Americans, in the creation of the original hip hop culture.
**[[Diocese of Tulle]] — Created 1317.
*[[Diocese of Le Puy]]
out of which (1678):

Also in New York City, early hip hop musician [[Joe Bataan]] (half Filipino and half African American) had one of the first rap hits, "Rap-O Clap-O," in [[1979]], released on his [[Salsoul Records|Salsoul]] label. In [[1980]], DJ [[Nasty Nes]] (of '''Rap Attack''' fame) of [[Seattle]] launched the specialty show "Freshtracks" on [[Seattle]]'s 1250 KFOX introducing the first ever hip-hop radio station on the West Coast.
===== Province of [[Albi]] =====
[[Image:rockforcecrew.jpg|thumb|200px|left|Rock Force Crew]]
*[[Archdiocese of Albi]] — became a metropolitan see in 1678. Out of which:
In the 1980s, several legendary Filipino B-Boy groups such as the [[Renegade Rockers]], [[Knuckleneck Tribe]], [[Rock Force Crew]], [[Daly City Breakers]], [[Jughead Tribe]] and [[Concrete Rockers]] also emerged out of the bay area rivaling even the [[New York City]] based [[Rock Steady Crew]]. Several tagging crews such as Oakland's Those Damn Kids (TDK) were some of the originators of [[Graf Art]] on the West Coast. It was during this time that TDK's [[Michael Francisco]] (a.k.a. "King Dream") came on the scene; now deceased, he is considered by many to have been one of the greatest and most influential graf writers.

[[Image:Djq-bert.jpg|thumb|320px|right|DJ Q-Bert]]
*Diocese of Mariana — The bishop resides in [[Bastia]]
By the 1990s, hip hop artists of [[Filipino]] descent (particularly [[turntablism|turntablists]] like [[Q-bert (DJ)|Q-Bert]] and the [[Invisibl Skratch Piklz]]) achieved prominence and came to dominate the DJ art form of scratching, introducing the world to a more innovative style of scratching utilizing a wide variety of new techniques, including the playing of actual melodies. {{ref|autonumber}} In 1996, the [[International Turntable Federation]], which hosts the largest international turntablist competitions, was established by Alex Aquino. [[DJ Babu]] (born Chris Oroc) has gained notoriety for his work with the turtablism group [[Beat Junkies]] and the alternative hip hop act [[Dilated Peoples]].

**[[Diocese of Saint-Claude]] — Created 1742.
[[Filipino American]] hip hop also both influences and is influenced by the native Filipino style poetic art of [[Balagtasan]], or spoken word poetry. In the millennium, underground rap groups such as [[Blue Scholars]], [[Native Guns]], and [[Kontrast]] have utilized this method in their styles, producing pure hip hop while promoting community activism and social conciousness through their lyrics, earning the title of "[[raptivists]]." Some groups, like California based [[Sons of Rebellion]], also unify several communities through their music as they represent the Filipino American, African American, and Muslim experience. Lyrics from Sons of Rebellion have even been used as part of a nationwide high school curriculum, for the technology based high school [[SiaTech]], and tracks from the Native Guns member [[Kiwi]]'s album '''Writes of Passage: Portraits of a Son Rising''' have also been used in a hip hop course taught at [[San Francisco State University]].
*[[Diocese of Autun]]
[[Image:apldap.jpg|thumb|100px|right|Apl.de.ap.]]
*[[Diocese of Langres]], out of which:
