What was France called during the Middle Ages?

France changed and evolved (just like everything else) over the very long medieval period. Similarly the names for the country were different in different languages.In Anglo-Norman French, France was variously known as France, Franche, Franse, Fraunsse, Fraunce, Fraunche, Frauncze.In Middle English the terms Franks, Fransh and Frensh were used.For much of the medieval period France was not the same as the country we know today; in 1154 it consisted of a very small area around Paris and Orleans while Henry II of England owned a much greater area consisting of Normandy, Maine, Anjou, Touraine, Poitou, Berry, Angouleme, Aquitaine, Limousin, Perigord and as far south as Gascony (this was all therefore English territory); Brittany, Burgundy, Toulouse and Flanders were all independent kingdoms unconnected to the kings of France or England.
