County of Conflent

The County of Conflent or Confluent (Latin: Confluensis) was one of the Catalan counties of the Marca Hispanica in the ninth century. Usually associated with the County of Cerdanya and the county of Razès, and was located to the west of Roussillon. It largely corresponded to the modern comarca of Conflent. Conflent was one of the last Catalan counties to see widespread grants of aprisiones, which were not commonplace until the 890s. Serfdom, though less common there than elsewhere, existed in Conflent in the late ninth century.
