Rahling

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Rahling is a commune in the Moselle department in Lorraine in north-eastern France. Moselle is a department in the east of France named after the river Moselle. Moselle is one of the original 83 departments created during the French Revolution on March 4, 1790. It was created from the former province of Lorraine. In 1793, the foreign enclaves of Manderen, Lixing-lès-Rouhling, Momerstroff, and Créhange (Kriechingen), all possessions of princes of the German Holy Roman Empire, were annexed by France and incorporated into the Moselle département. By the Treaty of Paris of 1814 following the first defeat and abdication of Napoleon, France had to surrender almost all its conquests since 1792. On the northeastern border, France was not restored to its 1792 borders, but a new border was established to put an end to the convoluted nature of the border, with all its enclaves and exclaves.
