Geography
editThe town is located in the department of Ariegè, in the region of Occitania.[3]
It is located 19 km (12 mi) away from Foix, prefecture of the department, and 8 km (5.0 mi) away from Pamiers which is the subprefecture.
The village neighbours several places: Saint-Amadou 1.9 km (1.2 mi) away, La Bastide-de-Lordat (2.8 km [1.7 mi]), Le Carlaret (2.9 km [1.8 mi]), Saint-Félix- de-Tournegat (3.1 km [1.9 mi]), Les Pujols (3.4 km [2.1 mi]), Lapenne (4.2 km [2.6 mi]), Trémoulet (4.3 km [2.7 mi]), Vals (4.5 km [2.8 mi]).
Geology and relief
editThe town is located in the Aquitaine Basin, the second largest sedimentary basin in France after the Paris Basin, the entire territory being covered by superficial formations. The outcropping land on the municipal territory is made up of sedimentary rocks dating from the Cenozoic, the most recent geological era on the geological time scale, beginning 66 million years ago. The detailed structure of the outcropping layers is described in sheet "n°1057 - Pamiers" about the harmonized geological map at approximately about 1/50,000th of the department of Ariège.[4][5]
The cadastral area of the town published by Insee, which serves as a reference in all statistics, is 1.87 km (1.16 mi).[6]
Hydrography
editThe commune is in the watershed of the Garonne, within the Adour-Garonne watershed.[7] It drains in the Caralet river, forming a hydrographic network 1 km (0.62 mi) in length.[8][9]
History
editLudiès is characteristic of the complexity of co-lordships in the Middle Ages. Thus, the Rigaud de Vaudreuil in particular, apart from their seigneury of Trémoulet and a quarter of that of Carlaret, were also half co-lords of Ludiès and Saint-Amadou, it being understood that the other half belonged in joint possession to the King of France, and the other to the Abbey of Saint-Antonin in Pamiers, under the condition of continuing to honor the abbey with a live sparrowhawk on Saint-Antonin's Day.
Politics and administration
editTerritorial division
editThe commune of Ludiès is a member of the community of communes called "Portes d'Ariège Pyrénées",[3] an inter communal organization headquartered in Pamiers. It is also a member of other intercommunal groups.[10]
Administratively, it belongs to the Ariegè department and arrondissement of Pamiers.[3]
Electorally it is under the canton of Pamiers-2 for electing departmental councillors since the 2015 cantonal rewriting,[3] and the Ariegè second constituency for legislative elections since they were last redrawn in 1986.[11]
Since February 2005, the mayor has been Danielle Bouché, of the Divers gauche party, characteristic of central Occitanie's socialist tendencies.
