Subdivisions:

The Gallo-Romance branch of Romance languages includes French, Franco-Provençal, and several other languages spoken in modern France, Northern Italy and east Spain. The Gallo-Romance languages, along with the Ibero-Romance and Rhaeto-Romance groups, form Western Romance. Like all Romance languages, the Gallo-romance languages are derived from Latin. They have developed as a subgroup via one Gallo-Romance proto-language which was spoken in Gaul between the fourth and ninth centuries.
