Dombes, in southeastern France was originally part of the Burgundian Empire. In 1402, Louis II of Bourbon acquired the territory and it remained independent until 1523 when it was confiscated by the king of France, Francis I. It was returned to the Bourbon family in 1561 and passed through various hands until it was officially a part of the French kingdom in 1762.
